    I am Ethan Ritz and a current 9th grader at Milken. For Service Learning this year, I was a Counselor in Training at Camp VBS for two weeks of the summer.

    Anti-Semitism reached to extreme levels beginning in 1939, when Polish Jews were regularly rounded up and shot by members of the SS. Though some of these SS men saw the arbitrary killing of Jews as a sport, many had to be lubricated with large quantities of alcohol before committing these atrocious acts. Mental trauma was not uncommon amongst those men who were ordered to murder Jews. The establishment of extermination camps therefore became the "Final Solution" to the "Jewish Question", as well as a way to alleviate the mental trauma that grappled the minds of Nazi soldiers. The following essay will examine various primary and secondary sources to better illuminate the creation, evolution, practices and perpetrators…

    Scouting was developed at the turn of the 20th century by British officer Robert Stephenson Smyth Baden-Powell. After discovering that his men did not know basic first aid or the elementary means of survival in the outdoors, he was prompted to teach them by writing a handbook called Aids to Scouting . Chicago publisher William D. Boyle experienced the working of the book when he was helped by a young man who claimed to be a scout, after refusing to take a tip for helping Boyle. Inspired by this act, Boyle met with Powell and with the same ideals in mind founded the Boy Scouts of America.
