    And VinnyL, i have decided to do German Luftwaffe. I was wondering if you could send on your A1 essay to give me a hand with my own?

    Operation Market Garden, September 1944

    Got me an A1 as well.... Kick ass.
    Main sources were the internet and the film A Bridge Too Far!

    Dunno wil this be appreciated, but find someones elses project, or copy one off the internet.

    It will save yourself a lot of time and no-one will ever know.

    I did it last year, on "Was Nazism a Coherent Ideology"

    Did a bit of research, but not half as much as other people.

    Got a B1 eventually, and 85% on the Special Topic

    I did my own, took me a weekend during 5th year, and I got 100% in my special topic. I didnt have any of the worrying of getting caught that you will have if you copy someone elses. Compare

    Sure thing PHB, sure you can even mark it for me if ya want. This my first year doing hist so dont be expecting much.

    I agree. Plus you get more satisfaction in a mark you get yourself.
