Subject: Whiz kids


I read that in the 1940s there was a group of young professionals, all very intelligent and with excellent education, that were engaged by the US Army. The US army used these young people to help develop and provide a strategic vision that eventually lead to an American victory in WWII. In many ways these youngsters were responsible for the outcome of the war and for the birth of the world that developed in its wake. After the war the youngsters, abandoned by their former employer, reintegrated themselves back into American society, becoming doctors, entrepeneurs, politicians, and the heads of corporations. They have continued to alter and effect the course of American history since that time. At the time of the war these youngsters were referred to as The Whiz Kids.

With this in mind I am going to start a collective that will encompass bitterness, hopelessness and wasted intelligence. We will be known as The Cheez-Whiz Kids.
