Evening Grace Snip & Sam~

Enjoyed the read on Morgan's Raiders.

What ever the problem was it seems to have fixed itself.

Try pouring hot water on your cable/router connects . . . it works for "frozen" pipes! ;^D

Sure looks like a rip off of the B-1 bomber.



Gotta go watch From China With Love.

A clue to the similarity may lie within the Russian aircraft designation Tu-1B160.

"Because Camp Chase, the prisoner of war camp outside Columbus, was not considered secure enough for such desperate prisoners,"

snippy,
My great, great, great uncle and his step brother were held at Camp Chase, Ohio. My great uncle was kept in a cell with four other men. They all contracted smallpox, and the other three died. His step-brother, Crockett, only 18 years old, also died at Camp Chase of smallpox. I have a copy of the pitiful letter my uncle wrote home telling his parents of his brother's death. Disease claimed about twice the number of lives as battle injuries did.

Local PBS out of Albuquerque KNME 5. Assume each PBS station to be a little fiefdom of liberal egos.

It sure is amazing how close the last few planes the Soviets built, look to the planes we designed and built.

Wonder if Hillary or Bill had access to our plans?

Hi Humal. We're they buried there and did they stay buried there? I know many were removed and given back to the South if I remember correctly. I live not too far away from there and walked through the cemetary once. It's very small.

The pow camps on both sides were miserable hellholes with disease taking a large toll in lives. You were almost better off getting killed on the battlefield.

"We're they buried there and did they stay buried there?"

As far as I know, Crockett, my ggg uncle's 18 year old step-brother, was buried there and never moved. My uncle, in spite of the smallpox, survived and was paroled at the end of the war. My uncle later committed suicide. Since no note was left, there has been a lot of speculation as to why he did that.

Three of his brothers-in-law served in the Union armies.
