Is that the immortal scene of Washington accepting Cromwell's surrender at Little Round Top?  Fear God and Dread Nought Admiral of the Fleet Sir Jacky Fisher | |||

Not really from Vienna |
That's the war where we beat the Nazis at Pearl Harbor, right? | |||

Shockingly it is real. Still up on the official Twitter account.

I would bet the great majority of today's high schoolers, and their history teachers, would have no clue. "Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women. When it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it....While it lies there, it needs no constitution, no law, no court to save it" - Judge Learned Hand, May 1944 | |||

Must be real. Abe Lincoln took the photo and posted to his facebook when it happened. | |||

Most people don't know who we fought, what century we fought, or what the conflict was about. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

At Rotterdam, London, Warsaw and half a hundred other places, they put their rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind." -Bomber Harris | |||

I love my country, truly and deeply, and I know many in this forum feel the same way. I cannot imagine- cannot imagine- being so ignorant of its history, as the vast majority of its citizens today seem to be. ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||
