Status: offline 		Doing a Staff Ride at Chicamauga, put on by the USMHI. First day was a lot of seminars and a big map table exercise. Had several speakers who knew their stuff and knew their ground. Extensive note taking was encouraged. Then off to we went to Alexander’s Bridge. A lesson in firepower in restricted engagement situations. Woof !!! I got to shoot a Spencer .56 rimfire. Nice gun.

Learning a lot. A very interesting campaign.

[ed] Holy Shimoly, did I just get a UNP ?

Ciao. JWE

I'm trying to organize a naval blokade to choke off his SLOC to New Caledonia.


Sounds like fun!

Status: offline 		Week number two is in the books and I couldn't be happier. The Bengals win last night was icing on the cake.

I did a spilt in the matrix leagues this week. My out look here has been lowered greatly. Although Reggie Bush seems like he's going to be OK, I've lost a number of other players to injuries. My big weakness was no back ups and now I need them and don't have them.

Seems more and more like, I'm just along for the ride.

But, you never know.

Status: offline 		This morning was Mass/Velocity day. Longstreet’s charge against Palmer @ Van Cleve. Would Wood have made a difference? We’ll never know. Interesting tactical differences from Picket’s line up at Gettysburg and how he had Hood’s, Johnson’s, Preston’s brigades aligned at Chicamauga. How much of that was Pete and how much serendipity, we’ll never know.

Some of the morning’s analyses deals with the effects of victory and what it does to unit cohesion. An important element when we get to Thomas’ defense.

Lot of the analysis for this morning is the comprehension and activity of the respective General officers. Leadership elements. Hmmmmm.

[ed] Obviously nobody cares so no pictures.

If you have a minute to post some images, I'd be interested in taking a look see, John. The course sounds very interesting.

John, believe it or not I have always been interested in American Civil War!

I have read many books about it (I even have Sheera father/son American Civil War trilogy "The Killer Angels", "Gods and Generals", "The Last Full Measure") and watched every movie about it that was available to me (and of course I do love movies "Gettysburg" and "Gods and Generals" - still waiting for "The Last Full Measure" movie)...

Gosh, Looking at it, I guess I could have said it bettrer. I meant that nobody in the group took any pictures. Being a bit ironic about us ancient farts who don't fiddle about with cameras or iPads or that stuff

John, I'm the same way. When I go somewhere I'm too busy actually looking at things to remember to take pictures. Sara is the official photographer for our family.

I've lost another running back!!!!

Atl. RB Steven Jackson is out this week and who knows for how long? Thigh injury.

Still don't know if Reggie Bush will play this week and even if he does he'll be limited.

My outlook has now dropped to

Tim Tebow is available in the majority of leagues. He is a RB.
