Prisoners of War

http://www.fortunecity.com/campus/dixie/921/PoWs/pows.htm
This website is about German prisoners of war in
Britain. I read the paragraphs and look at some
pictures. German prisoners often changed their
camps in Britain. You can detect that there were
lots of camps in Britain from the picture right.
However, they still didn't get basic demand.
Picture1: Network of POW camps in Britain.



There are several pictures in this website. All
of them are about the prisoners in World War
Two. I scan all pictures.There were many
German prisoners which were caught by
American. The picture right is about Jewish
civilians.Black and white picture also reflects
their agonizing life.

Spies in WW2

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_many_British_spies_were_there_during_World_War_2
This is a Q and A about spies of Britain. Their
spies were successful because they all came
from different countries. I learn different
languages can make the spying job safer.

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_effect_did_German_spies_have_in_World_War_2
This is another Q and A, about German spies. Comparing with

spies of Britain, spies of Germany were really helpless. They
were often caught by Britain immediately. However, their
military was still strong.

Pearl Harbor

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attack_on_Pearl_Harbor
This article length is so long that I just read some
paragraphs. After I read it, I found people like to show
the results by numbers. However, we have to put the
emphasis on preventing attacks like this.

This website talks about a story of a couple that lived
in Pearl Harbor. I read all of it and found the attack
of Pearl Harbor was the most successful one than the
others. I also learned countries didn't care what they
were attacking during the war. Though the houses
of civilian.
The length of this website is much longer than the first
website I found. Call me if you finish reading all of it.
There's a film "Japan Bombs Pearl Harbor". From the
sentence president said:“day which will live in infamy”
I realized how brutal Japan was that time.

Bombing Raids in WW2

http://www.century-of-flight.freeola.com/Aviation%20history/WW2/bombing%20raids.htm
This website talks about bombing raids in Britain
and Germany. Germany bombed London, and
Britain revenged. It wouldn't end if Britain didn't
win the war. However, weapons broke many
families, not except for Germans.
I view this website and read the article. There are
many statistics in the last paragraph. Bombing
Raids caused enormous damage during WW2. It
shows there is no honorable war. War can't occur.
This video is about the battle of Britain. At first
there were many people preparing bombs. You can
see bombing raids and dogfights, too. After I watch-
ed the film, if humans didn't record the war, our
later generations won't learn the brutal of war.
