Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

My rising third grader wants to do something involving the military. We thought of camoflauge however we only found research concerning animals. Any suggestions? it doesn't have to be camoflauge he just wants military.(marines) Thanks in advance! Also we have a year to complete this.

Hello there,

If he wants to do a science fair project on the military, I think camouflage is a great idea! He could somehow investigate how the military/army uses camouflage to hide and how it helps in warfare and how it can be advantageous. Otherwise, here is a link to a thread with the same question/topic that may be of interest to you/that can help you out: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/mentorin ... =24&t=5767
Here is another thread with ideas on warfare/war in general: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... =24&t=6088
You can also always check out the project ideas on the sciencebuddies homepage to help you out as well!

I hope that helps and good luck!
