I've driven through a couple of Apache reservations in New Mexico that were on good, very pretty land. Not at all like the pictures in the movies.

Nice thread. Those Texans were ornery, for sure.
I have a couple of ancestors who were in a mounted infantry regiment during the Civil War, but the fine distinctions between mounted infantry, cavalry and dragoons mostly escape me. Still, in the days before armor, signing on for one of them sounds like the way to go.

Just Curious, why did you post the Blue Star banner on the announcement of our site? We are not affiliated with the Blue Star Banner, although we do list its history on our site. What I have done is created a new means of showing support for troops, veterans and our POW/MIA's. I have tried to upload to the thread our logo, and have had no luck in doing so...can you help me out?
Also, Thank you for adding your name to our site and passing our link along. I do appreciate it, and all that you are doing here.
Do you think it would be appropriate to do a Thread on the history of the Blue Star Banner / Service Star? I know that there are a lot of people who still have not even heard of it. That is why we chose to put a breif history on our site, with a link so that more information can be gathered by those interested.
Have a Great Day!!! God Bless, and I love what you all are doing at the Foxhole.

Evening Iris7.
The Apaches were tough, Can't blame the Dragoons for avoiding them.

I guess anything beats humping the boonies. Why walk when you can ride?

I can take the banner off, tried doing a search for just a plain blue star but didn't have any luck. Let me know the address of your banner is and I'll try to put it in the announcement.

Never stand when you can sit
Never sit when you can lay down
As long as you're laying down might as well take a nap.
