Interview

Kevin Callahan · 26-08-2008, 02:43 AM

Hello. I know this may seem annoying, ignorant, or inconveniant and i apologize. But I have to do an interview for a history project to learn about the culture of that time period and get a sense of the era. So i was just wondering if anyone would be willing to do an interview? Thank you for your time.

Welcome Kevin. Perhaps you might explain how you intend to conduct the interview?

You most certainly are not being annoying, ignorant, or inconvenient.

I tried sending you a private message but you have elected not to receive any!!

Like Herakles says Kevin, you arent being annoying in the least. But you need to be more specific. What info do you need?

He can't get PMs because he hasn't made enough posts nor has he been a member of the forum long enough. You have to make 5 posts and be member 3 or 5 days before PMs are available.

I didn't know that Jeff. Seems to be a strange requirement!

I also wonder why he posted in the Women of WW2 forum.

I posted in the Women's forum because I thought it might be interesting to interview a woman who participated in a different way--not the hand-to-hand combat portion. Would it be easier to do the interview via email or by posting questions and answers right here?

That's a good idea Kevin. A woman's perspective would be different.

I need to know a little more however. What do you mean by wanting to know about the culture at the time? This has little to do with the war. Also at what level are you? Are you at school? University?

I will be a high school junior in the fall. As to wanting to learn more about the culture, I was just going to ask about a dozen questions and then infer how life and the war were like. That's a mandatory part of the project.

Great Kevin. I now know from your use of the word "Fall" that you must be in the USA.

Why not post your questions here and let members answer them? You can then select from these as your fancy fits. I will be happy to respond. But I will bring a non-American perspective.
