The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Alvin C York, MOH


For John, BLUFA humble guy out of Tennessee, doing what he thought was his duty.  Nothing to see here; just move along.




The Meuse-Argonne Offensive.

From Task and Purpose, by Staff Writer James Clark, 8 October 2018.

Here is the lede plus one:

On Oct. 8, 1918, while serving on the Western Front, Army Cpl. Alvin C. York led a charge against a German machine-gun position during World War I, which resulted in 20 enemy casualties attributed to York alone, and the capture of 132 German soldiers.

He did it with just seven men.

At this point the Armistice was just over a month away, on 11 November.
