Over one hundred sixth through twelfth graders from across DoDDS-Europe came to Heidelberg, Germany from March 26th-28th to participate in the 2007 National History Day (NHD) Area Competition. The theme for NHD 2007, Triumph and Tragedy, was well represented across each category (paper, performance, exhibit, documentary).

Awards were given to the first and second place winner(s) in each division and category. The Student Choice Awards were presented to the two top exhibits selected by the students. Those students who were awarded first place in their category will have the opportunity to compete in the NHD competition, which will be held June 10th-14th at the University of Maryland College Park.
