Happy birthday Reb! I hope you got to eat some good ol' fried chicken and banana puddin for dessert.

Better yet who exactly do we need to bribe and/or seduce to the dark side?

Thats got my ears perked...

Thanks for the info. Even though most of my heritage is German I know very little about the nation. Some day Ill get around to visiting and fixing that.

I did some research and the 2nd and 3rd verses are forbidden to be sung. Neither of them are Nazi-supporting but I guess the German Army has its reasons.

I wish I could ask my uncle as he was there with the 82nd, it was his first jump.

Caught the classic Battle of the Bulge today on AMC and finally saw the end (yeah I was surprised when I saw scenes Id never seen before). But the scene where Hessler is inspecting his new tankers and they start signing is quite impressive.

You sure? The South went by towns, the North went by bodies of water. South: Sharpsburg North: Antietam South:Manassas North: Bull Run

If I were your parent's, Id leave you here and go to Greece too. That whole final scene was great. The little kid and Tommy seem to have really good chemistry. I also liked the scene where they were discussing Franco's new girlfriend in the kitchen. I love those scenes from Rescue Me.

Well when you put it like that Ron its a tough argument to beat. But like I said: if its got a blue or gray coat, I want it.

Wow, my Grandfather and his brother would be rollin over in their graves right now.

Not always. The Roman's were very well supplied but they built a wall instead of going after Scotland. I guess they watched Braveheart the night before ;)

The more I read of Master of War, the more I question how good Grant and Sherman really were. Its a bit hard to throw out years of teaching after reading just one book, but it does make me curious.

That would be great. Hes one of my favorites. My worry with the winter clothing is that some collectors may be put off by the inability to use the figures to portray various battles. But it wouldnt matter to me, Ill get whatever comes out.

Its been like that in Texas for a while and my dad dealt with it when he was in Georgia. The Man doesnt want the little guy to join his ranks :cool:

That speech was given by Kennedy when George Marshall passed away in October of 1959. So it goes without saying that Marshall would fit as an answer to all four. Marshall more than any other man was indispensable to the US war effort in World War Two. As the head military mind it was his job...

All the shows I watched on that network got canned. Battlestar and both Stargates. Maybe Caprica and Stargate Universe can bring me back... we'll see.

I thought this quote from President John F. Kennedy might fit well in this thread: "For those to whom much is given; much is required. When at some future date, the high court of history sits in judgment on each of us, recording whether in our brief span of service we fulfilled our...

Hows it goin Ron? Out of curiosity what was your major at Florida State?

Dont forget Cobb's Legion from the ACW! You know, for when First Legion turns its considerable talents to that range.
