So how do you think it will resolve, @skynel_27 ? There's always collateral damage in war that the group who did it tries to push on someone...
This is totally true. The horrid Klan as we know it didn't get active until Forrest had been dead for... more than 30 years, I do believe. That...
Oooooh! Okay, I get you now. I'm sorry that I didn't before, Turo. Yes, there are certain people and groups who claim things and stick to it even...
What do you all think will happen with the passenger airline just shot down today in Ukraine? More tensions with Russia and the world as a whole, or...
I've never been able to get a straight answer... it's like an inside joke and they beat around the bush with twinkling eyes with their non-answers......
There are tons of living history places all over the country that pay workers to be uniformed guides, yes. I'd love to do that, but those hoop...
I have no idea what this means. I *think* you're saying that you are of the belief that the Holocaust happened whether or not someone claims it...
The more I work with my Gettysburg death roster, the sadder I get to see the ages of a great number of the soldiers. Some enlisted at age 15 and 16....

Back then, yes... haven't there been changes made, though, to assure that can never happen again? The Sole Survivor Policy was created when the five...

I'm not sure what they did... but you're right. I see that a lot with the Civil War work I'm doing. Slaves were *WILLED* to offspring, so I guess...
I'm not sure if it matters, Peninha. Many of the slave holders were described as "kind"... and even after they were freed, many slaves chose to stay...
Thank you... two hours is doable and sounds as if it would make a good day trip from St. Augustine. I heard *this morning* that one of the...
That "some slaves were treated well" thing was always an eye-roller for me. I mean what does it MATTER how well they were treated if they were still...
Things like this generally aren't fully known or understood until after it's much too late to do something about it. I'm not fully up to speed on...
There is a streamer for Confederate units as well as Union... both blue and gray, with the position of the stripes switched. I'm not 100% sure if...
