54Phan's Grade X history project.

So my grade X history teacher assigns us a project, an event in British history since 1900. I decide to recreate the Dambuster's raid, right in classroom 206 at ODCVI. I use a Wellington Mk III cowling to cobble up an "Upkeep" bomb. My grey plastic Airfix Lancaster, bereft of markings but with a top coat of gloss medium brown, participates in the demonstration. I have modified it by gluing lights on the belly. I set up two textbooks on his desk to stand in for the Moehne Dam, and flicked the "bomb" so that it bounced across his desk and struck the target. I put the names of all of the crews who participated on the chalkboard. I gave a 15 minute presentation.

He gave me 9.5 out of 10 marks, because as he said, "There's no such thing as a perfect presentation."
