Morning larryjohnson. I envy you your trip to Gettysburg. I've never been able to get there. For now I can only imagine the way I would feel walking that ground. Based on how I felt at Shiloh I think there are sites there that would reduce me to tears, knowing what had happened.

He was sure a unique figure in our history. Upon such men rest the history of our Country.

I haven't been able to read much about him. I do know that there is a great new biography out.

Right now, my college Holocaust class is claiming all my reading time...

1987 USS Stark hit by Iraqi missiles, 37 sailors die

During a 1987 deployment, STARK was struck by two missiles fired by Iraqi aircraft. The fires that resulted claimed 37 lives, and only the heroic action of the crew saved the ship. Today the only remaining sign of this tragic event is the memorial engraving mounted in the midships' passageway, which lists the names of the lost shipmates.

Larry,

When will you be in Gettysburg? I plan to be there July 1 - July 5... to see the battle re-enactments.

LOL! I bought his "Million Ma Math Made Easy" video. ;-)

Almost all my reading on Chamberlain has been either about his role at Fredricksburg or Gettysburg.

My youngest daughter is interested in the Holocaust, she reads all she can and is having a hard time grasping how it could have happened, she doesn't understand how come there was so little resisitance.

Great picture SAMWolf. I would love to share a cup of coffee with that great man.

Though they were on different sides, I wonder if Chamberlin and Lee would have talked education and teaching together.

I'd be willing to bet they would.
