One hundred years ago, on July 18-19, the 4th Marine Brigade, in the Battle of Soissons, threw back the last German offensive of the war while sustaining 1,972 casualties in 48 hours of fierce fighting. The Germans called the Marines "Devil Dogs".
On the same day, the 19th, the USS San Diego hit a mine and sank off Fire Island, N.Y. with the loss of 6 lives......Medicineman!
My blog will attempt to be a source of accurate information on any subject put forward. My approach to any question will come from the conservative, freedom loving,and Christian. My background includes history, medicine and military. Welcome!
