Quote
"To each there comes in their lifetime a special moment when they are figuratively tapped
on the shoulder and offered the chance to do something, unique to them and fitting their
talents. What a tragedy if that moment finds them unprepared or unqualified for that which
could have been their finest hour."
-Winston Churchill

Summary
The Second World War was arguably the greatest time in history for advances. Advances in politics, world relations, but mostly for technological advances. Things that were invented about 70 years ago are still being used today. This time period really helped move us forward in ways we may never see again. It was good but it wasn't all good. From the war the Atomic bomb was developed and that has sparked many debates and affected many people over the years. Overall I think the war has advanced us in a positive way and nothing else would have had the power to do that.
