Over the past year I've been think about what i should be my topic of my graduation project. As I was thinking, I came up with a few ideas on what I want to do my grad project on:
Essential Questions:
1. How did the US Marine Corp. become their own branch in the US Military?
2. Why did the US Marine Corp. branch out of the US Navy?
My project is focused on how might a person who doesn't know anything about veterans, help them with their problems/struggles they are facing. I hope to learn and actually help struggling veterans with some of the problems they face. I’m doing this project because of my internship/volunteer at The Veterans Leadership Program of Western Pennsylvania(VLP).
