    Hunt and Capture of German Submarine U-505

    Admiral Vincent T Gallery wrote several humorous books about the Navy (Stand By-y-y to Start Engines, Cap'n Fatso are two) as well as a non-fiction about the capture of U-505. As I recall, he says the humor books were "fiction" to protect the guilty ... lol. ALL were enjoyable reads ~~ IF you...

    Hunt and Capture of German Submarine U-505

    When a state considers more anit-2A measures, I try to find a way to send a message to their legislators and Tourism departments that I will not visit their state and I will do all I can to influence my associations to avoid them as well.

    Battle of Peleliu — Revisiting a Meat-Grinder of the Pacific War

    My father-in-law, Clifton Dantin, was on Pelileu. He was part of the Army 81st that Maj. Gen. Rupertus left floating in the Pacific early on because he reportedly didn't want to "share the glory" with the Army. Clif didn't talk much about Pelilieu except that the Army was generally forgotten...

    Is CCW on a Motorcycle Safe?

    I carry a G19 @ 3:30 OWB under a snapped vest and a snubbie ankle holstered. I can clear the vest easily if the bike is stopped, but I can also pull the left side snubbie while riding if absolutely necessary. The snubbie can also be drawn inconspicuously while stopped if things are uncertain...
