Oh, oh. That was the dude who was assassinated that started WWI. Hell if I know what his name was. Maybe not WWI, but it was something.
I'm late to the party, but listened to this story on Hardcore History the other day. Any of y'all listen to that podcast? If not, you're really missing out.

His political podcast common sense is phenomenal as well

Haven't gotten into it yet. From the little bit of politics that sneak their way into HH I could see Common Sense being great. Is it basically day to day occurrences around our government?

OK, Three part question....
1. The easy part... What military unit do these guys belong to?
2. The sorta hard part... What War have they been fighting?
3. The really hard part... Who's flag is that?

Y'all were correct on #1, those are US Marines.
As for #2, they've been fighting the Banana Wars in Nicaragua back in the 1920's.
As for #3, that flag belonged to the Nicaraguan revolutionary Augusto Sandino.

Older than what? I'm not yet 50.
And I teach history (or did until recently - got "elevated" - I would say promoted, but it's just positional - no more money - but more of what I hate doing and less of what I like doing.)

In my case, yes.
Posted on 7/8/14 at 1:14 pm to GeauxColonels

Posted on 7/8/14 at 1:15 pm to GeauxColonels
Hell, we can't even make out any details to even guess!
