After more than forty-eight hours had elapsed since the khaki-clad, tiki-torch wielding white nationalists marched across the University of Virginia campus and participated deadly violence the following day, Trump finally stepped in front of the cameras only to blame both sides of the racial conflict occurring in the rural hamlet of Charlottesville. His ambivalence and refusal to denounce overt racism perpetrated by his white populist base reinforced his public perception as being racist himself. Although Trump claims to be “the least racist person,” his words and actions over the decades speak for themselves.1 In a 2018 New York Times opinion article, David Leonhardt and Ian Prasad Philbrick assembled a conclusive list of his known racist comments.2 Thus, it could be that this notion of perception is really an actuality. Whether reality of “perception,” this aspect of the president taints those individuals within his orbits of influence, whether they are advisors, friends, or family. For some individuals and some news media outlets, assumptions might be made regarding those closest to the president, namely his family members.

  • On Early Air Combat in Southeast Asia After Wingate’S Fortitude Eclipsed Mountbatten’S Folly
    COMMENTARY On Early Air Combat in Southeast Asia After Wingate’s Fortitude Eclipsed Mountbatten’s Folly RONALD H. CARPENTER, PHD arly in World War II, President Franklin D. Roosevelt opposed American armed forces helping restore British colonies overrun by Japan. He never- theless agreed in August 1943 after meeting with Prime Minister Win- Eston Churchill and his staff at the Quadrant Conference in Quebec, Canada. An “Air Commando” Group thus was created by Gen H. H. “Hap” Arnold and led by Lt Col Phil Cochran, a 30-year- old, “hot pilot” who became Col “Flip” Corkin in a long- running comic strip. For combat in Burma, this unit was formed by Arnold after hearing British Brig Gen Orde Wingate speak at Quadrant—in stark con- trast to Adm Lord Louis Mountbatten, Churchill’s chosen commander for Southeast Asia. For Quadrant, Roosevelt also brought Army general George Marshall and Navy admirals Ernest King and William Leahy (the latter, FDR’s aide). Although major conference planning yielded Overlord, the D- Day assault upon Nazi- occupied Europe, warfare elsewhere was discussed. The Oxford Companion to World War II deemed Wingate’s creating so “favorable” an impression that he received “more resources than he could ever have expected.” Generals and admirals bring prior credibility to conferences. Insignia of rank demonstrate authority; rows of ribbons denote extensive service if not valor; and reputations for previous sound decisions (or lack thereof ) may affect listeners. Some credibility, however, is enhanced by their speaking during those meetings. At Quadrant, Wingate exemplified such impress. After leading Emperor Haile Selassie’s irregular forces against Italian troops in Ethiopia early in World War II, Wingate went to India in June 1942 to organize and command a Long- Range Penetration Group.

    Helmet From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For other uses, see Helmet (disambiguation). This article needs additional citations for verification. Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (December 2012) A woman wearing a bicycling helmet A helmet is a form of protective gear worn to protect the head from injuries. Ceremonial or symbolic helmets (e.g., UK policeman's helmet) without protective function are sometimes used. The oldest known use of helmets was by Assyrian soldiers in 900BC, who wore thick leather or bronze helmets to protect the head from blunt object and swordblows and arrow strikes in combat. Soldiers still wear helmets, now often made from lightweight plastic materials. In civilian life, helmets are used for recreational activities and sports (e.g., jockeys in horse racing, American football, ice hockey, cricket,baseball, and rock climbing); dangerous work activities (e.g., construction, mining, riot police); and transportation (e.g., Motorcycle helmetsand bicycle helmets). Since the 1990s, most helmets are made from resin or plastic, which may be reinforced with fibers such as aramids. The word helmet is diminutive from helm, Medieval word for combat protective headgear. The Medieval great helm covers the whole head and often is accompanied with camail protecting throat and neck as well. Originally a helmet was a helm which covered the head only partly.

  • The Warhorse & Militaria Heritage Foundation Promotes and Educates
    --A BRIEF SUMMERY of CAVALRY REGIMENTAL HISTORIES Here is a brief overview of some of the regiments and uniforms participants may be wearing and representing with War Horse. 17th Lancers: The Warhorse Foundation presents the famous British 17th Lancers as they were in 1879 in South Africa during the Zulu Campaign. The 17th Lancers were established in 1759 after the Seven Years War with France while in Canada in memory of the death of the victorious General Wolf; the 17th Light Dragoon unit‘s motto was “Or Glory” with a skull logo… implying Death or Glory; it has remained since. The regiment fought for the British with distinction in the American Revolutionary war for 8 years and later served in India in 1808 for fourteen years. In 1823 they were renamed the 17th Lancers and listed as light cavalry. In 1854 the regiment was in the Crimean where it participated in the most famous cavalry charge, memorialized in Lord Tennison’s Poem – The Charge of the Light Brigade. “ Half a league, Half a league, Half a league onward. All into the valley of death rode the Six Hundred. Cannon’s to the right of them, Cannons to the left of them, Stormed at with shot and shell, boldly they rode and well…All in the Valley of Death, rode the six hundred. 145 17th Lancers began the charge on that fateful day, and only 38 survived… Today, you see the Lancers as there were in the Zulu War in 1879 in South Africa. If you recall the Michael Caine Movie “Zulu”.
