Brittanie's project

In Brittanie's American Military History class, the teacher split everyone into groups and assigned them each a branch of the military to research and do a poster on. Brittanie LOVES all things Army and her teacher knew this, so she was hoping to be placed in the Army group. The teacher, I am assuming, wanted her to learn about a different branch since she knew so much about the Army already so she placed her in the Air Force group, which she was not happy about. She is the only girl in the Air Force group. They each had a piece of information to gather and pictures. Brittanie hates working on a group project because she is very very particular about making it the best and most people don't care enough to put much effort into a project. Well this project was just a poster board of information about the Air Force. She offered to assemble the poster herself at home and the guys were very happy with that. Well she wasn't happy with the hand written write ups or the black and white huge pictures the guys gave her so she basically redid everything herself. The teacher told them to get a map and show 5 bases of that branch on the map and not all in the US. She saw some of the other posters that were submitted and most were hand drawn or printed from a book and marked with a dot made by a black marker to indicate the bases. Brittanie wanted to do better so she got her plain map, colored it and grabbed a picture of a tiny American flag and put the flag on the five bases instead of a black dot. What I find funny is that she didn't put a flag in South Carolina. She said everyone knows we have a base here. She wanted to show places where people may not know there is a base. Here is the finished product. (Click it to make it larger.)

One part of the project included putting any family members you have in that particular branch on your poster. So here is the list from her group. Brittanie's entries are obviously last. She left out Uncle Harvel, unfortunately. She didn't know he was in the Air Force too. (By the way, she does know her Grandpa's first name. She always calls him Grandpa and it was glued before she realized she didn't put his first name. )
