Morning all…

Sorry for your loss B&B…

Had to bury my LSU roommate and best man when I married my first ex-wife. He had a recurrence of bladder cancer that ended up as untreatable.
As a lot of y’all know, I presented his flag to his widow.

Morning all…

To borrow the words of that great football proginastor, Hueng Soro,
RSU FOOTBARR today,,,
I'm uncertain if even Shirley Q. Liquor is still celebrating Kwanzaa.
One of the odd things I got involved in at the Waterways Experiment Station was a mid 1920's commission for an Aid in the Coast and Geodetic Survey signed by Calvin Coolidge as President and Herbert Hoover as Secretary of Commerce.

Did some digging and after a couple of phone calls I was able to get someone at NOAA who could explain it.

The rank of Aid was the USCGS equivalent of a Second Lieutenant!

Morning Baw, right at 0400!
Well, if they are going to have a Battleship designation, they should be named after states and pick up at BB-72.

The completed Iowas were BB-61 to 64.

Kentucky and Illinois were BB-65 and 66 which weren't completed and scrapped.

BB-67 to 71 were the five ships of the cancelled Montana class, Montana, Ohio, Maine, New Hampshire, and Louisiana.

I don't know politics well, but how red would Minnesota be if it weren't for immigrants?


not very as the state is full of Scandinavian immigrants who brought their Norwegian/Swedish socialist beliefs with them.
