I have family in Baton Rouge. I’ve been there enough to know an area which has numerous streets named after battles etc. Like conderate ave, Manassas, Antioch etc.

I started smoking a 10 years of age. I averaged as an adult 3-5 packs a day, and smoked for 36 years. Also dipped a can of Copenhagen a day for 37 years. I often joked that I was glad they never invented tobacco suppositories cuz I would have probably been right there......

On this day in history:

January 16th, 1944,
Gen. Dwight Eisenhower assumes command of SHAEF (Supreme Headquarters, Allied Expeditionary Forces) in London. Japanese make final counterattack on New Britain in the Solomons, but fail.

While he was never a cadet at LSU, Troy Middleton (who graduated from nearby Mississippi State University and was com-missioned in the Army) added to the military lore of LSU where, before the war, he had served as Commandant of Cadets from 1930-36. Earlier, as an instructor at the Command and General Staff College, he had taught Dwight D. Eisenhower.
