And in a show of EU solidarity we are being protected by France because we can't be arsed being able to do it for ourselves.
Let's not forget that RN warship as well

Whatever about age, looking at Elvis I'm going to be a lot slimmer when it's my turn 😂

Clearly he should have gone with "going to use my 3/4/6/8in piece to open up a gap for my soldiers to push through"

Vienna 1683, Constantinople 1453. Not sure about Vicksburg don't think it was a turning point but it did accelerate the Norths final victory

There is an excellent channel on YouTube that puts up videos of the battle walks from Gettysburg national park. Can easily lose a few hours watching them youtu.be/dy4_SfoFALw?...

A film based on a novel which has somehow convinced its viewers that it's a documentary

The characters are not one dimensional and you actually care about them.
The pooping scene in episode 1 tho......

I first saw it in south Lebanon in 95. Probably watched it and unhealthy amount of times since.
Avoid the prequel tho, it's a mess. Would love to see the third film made but doubt it'll ever happen

Pondering if you should watch the theatrical cut of "Gettysburg", the extended cut, or the directors cut.
The obvious answer is all 3

Met him once. He visited us in the glen before we were going to the Lebanon in 95. He had double hearing protection when the troops were going without. Then stood over soldiers being dragged through the courts for hearing loss when he knew the truth

Good to see they haven't lost their sense of priorities

Irish, so no dog in the fight. But in WW2 you did host all the governments in exile. Which is a step above flying some flage imho.
