    Burnside Bridge, Battle of Antietam 1862

    I've been to Antietam a few years ago. My greatest take away with these battlefields are battle tactics that put sheer number of soldiers in the open to push the opposing army off the field. World War I was probably the worst. The other take away is soldiers had to walk everywhere. The shoes...

    Springfield, Mass Museum Displays #5

    I like what Jason is doing. It's fun to see the old pics, something I wouldn't do on my own. I just look at the pics. I don't read all the comment posts.

    Bourbon Lovers

    I was looking for Eagle Rare this past weekend and couldn't find any. In fact, all better Bourbons were in short supply on Maui.

    I really like KC's old Vietnam stuff, not as realistic like their current stuff, but I like the poses.

    Don't see this everyday...Teenage girl fights off huge bear to protect her dogs

    She was foolish and lucky that the outcome was in her favor. Kids, don't try this at home.

    Hardcore History podcast

    Apparently, the Roman javelin is heavy and when bent, the heavy part would droop to the ground. After the Romans threw their javelins they would rush the Gaul's line. The Gauls would hardly have time to pull the spears out of their shields and would drop them to face the oncoming enemy. That's...

    Hardcore History podcast

    I'm listening to a 6-hour podcast about Caesar destroying the Gauls. Quite interesting. History, weapons, battle tactics. Brutal. For instance, the Roman spear would bend on impact, so if launched and landed on shields, the bent spear would drag the shield down and the Gauls would have to drop...

    Food Particular to your Area

    Being from Hawaii, I eat a lot of raw food particularly sea food. I was in Hershey, PA for a class 35-years ago and was surprised they had a "raw bar" in the bar. They had excellent raw clams and oysters and they were free. BTW, raw scallops and shrimp are better than cooked. Very sweet. I made...

    Food Particular to your Area

    When I was a kid, my dad worked in irrigation for the sugar plantation. When they would drain the reservoir, my dad would catch hundreds of crayfish. We'd put them in a large metal tub and boil them over an open fire. Then we'd separate the meat from the shell. Lots of work, but for months we'd...

    Henry the 5th

    I'm don't know much about Shakespeare, but on the Jocko podcast #15, Jocko does an excellent job of interpreting his speech prior to the battle of Agrincourt. Very inspiring. The terms, Band of Brothers and the Dogs of War were from this play/book. I listen to the Jocko podcast on Spotify, but...

    Let it Snow

    Maui, Oahu and Kauai all had landslides and flooding (damaged houses). On Maui, a dam overflowed in Haiku flooding that area. Where I live in Wailuku, we had about 2-inches of rain and no big deal. The storm and its damage was highly unexpected. On another note, I'm about 300-pages into the...
