    1. Well, "your freedom" in the most general sense. You know, not yours specifically, and not really freedom, except in the abstract.

  2. Some folks don't know the difference between "narrative" and real "history".

  3. War is a cruel, unforgiving bitch that will chew you up and spit you out, whole or in parts.
    No one escapes whole. Vietnam 1970-1972

  4. No, I don't need to watch the video. I've seen enough gore in real life. And for the civil war era, long before the discovery and development of antibiotics, the most trivial gunshot wound could be and often was fatal.

    Helps explain why King David said 1 Chronicle 21:13: "And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall now into the hand of the Lord; for very great are his mercies: but let me not fall into the hand of man."

  6. If you're ever on I-70 or I-81 through Maryland this is well worth the visit.
