Some of his early works are excellent, but later on he got into more progressivism

So, is he Captain Chapman or Major Chapman?
What chicken insignia are you talking about? Never heard that.
Anyway Major to Lt. Col, which is an oak leaf, gold to silver.
Colonels wear the bird, which is why they are “full bird colonels”.
And no lower ranked dude is going to call a two star by a nickname or personal name.
That’s as far as I got.
OMG, thanks for feedback. I put an earlier unedited version in Dropbox. I think I have corrected some of those errors.
Full Colonel eagle insignias are sometimes referred to as "chickens" in a humorous vein. I asked Grok the following question: Are the Marine Corps full colonel eagles sometimes referred to as "chickens"
This is her answer: Yes, the Marine Corps full colonel insignia, which features silver eagles, is sometimes colloquially referred to as "chickens" in military slang. This term is used humorously or informally among service members, often due to the eagle's resemblance to a bird and the playful nature of military jargon. However, the term is not official and is used more in jest or camaraderie than in formal contexts.
Long time friends of different ranks will often be familiar with each other in private or social occasions..

In "Destination Ukraine," Lieutenant Colonel Rick Chapman, a seasoned USMC officer fresh from a covert operation in Afghanistan, is thrust into a high-stakes mission that tests his skills and resolve. Assigned as Military Attaché at the Prague Embassy, Chapman’s world shifts when secret orders redirect him to Russian-occupied Ukraine. His objective was to extract a defecting Russian general and his mistress, who promised critical intelligence.

During the 1980s, our company had much business in France, and several of our executives would fly the Concorde. I always got book on direct flights from DFW to Paris.

re: Hotels - Asheville, NC?
Posted by blueridgeTiger on 6/3/25 at 10:15 am
Instead of Airbnb, we've used a local property company the last two times we were in Asheville. Once, our B&B was next to the Asheville Tourists stadium, and the next time it was near downtown. Much cheaper than the upscale hotels you might stay in:

re: Who here has used an outhouse?
Posted by blueridgeTiger on 6/2/25 at 1:35 pm
My uncle's farm near Magnolia, Mississippi in the 1940s. No electricity, no running water and no sewage (not even a septic tank). The outhouse was a good distance from the main house.
