@HomericFuturist Battle of Eutaw Springs
Had 5 of my 5th-6th great grandfather's there under the Swamp Fox

[C.S. Whitley @chriswhit85]

@HomericFuturist This is mine. I made it last summer after I visited the Alamo on a trip. Tried to replicate a coffin handle bowie I saw at the museum. I shortened the blade so I can carry it easier horizontally on the belt.

[Roman Helmet Guy @romanhelmetguy]

George S. Patton wrote this poem in 1922. Imagine knowing you have to fight a force led by the fucker who wrote this:

Through the travail of the ages,
Midst the pomp and toil of war,
I have fought and strove and perished
Countless times upon this star.

In the form of many people
In all panoplies of time
Have I seen the luring vision
Of the Victory Maid, sublime.

I have battled for fresh mammoth,
I have warred for pastures new,
I have listened to the whispers
When the race trek instinct grew.

I have known the call to battle
In each changeless changing shape
From the high souled voice of conscience
To the beastly lust for rape.

I have sinned and I have suffered,
Played the hero and the knave;
Fought for belly, shame, or country,
And for each have found a grave.

I cannot name my battles
For the visions are not clear,
Yet, I see the twisted faces
And I feel the rending spear.

Perhaps I stabbed our Savior
In His sacred helpless side.
Yet, I’ve called His name in blessing
When in after times I died.

In the dimness of the shadows
Where we hairy heathens warred,
I can taste in thought the lifeblood;
We used teeth before the sword.

While in later clearer vision
I can sense the coppery sweat,
Feel the pikes grow wet and slippery
When our Phalanx, Cyrus met.

Hear the rattle of the harness
Where the Persian darts bounced clear,
See their chariots wheel in panic
From the Hoplite’s leveled spear.

See the goal grow monthly longer,
Reaching for the walls of Tyre.
Hear the crash of tons of granite,
Smell the quenchless eastern fire.

Still more clearly as a Roman,
Can I see the Legion close,
As our third rank moved in forward
And the short sword found our foes.

Once again I feel the anguish
Of that blistering treeless plain
When the Parthian showered death bolts,
And our discipline was in vain.

I remember all the suffering
Of those arrows in my neck.
Yet, I stabbed a grinning savage
As I died upon my back.

Once again I smell the heat sparks
When my Flemish plate gave way
And the lance ripped through my entrails
As on Crecy’s field I lay.

In the windless, blinding stillness
Of the glittering tropic sea
I can see the bubbles rising
Where we set the captives free.

Midst the spume of half a tempest
I have heard the bulwarks go
When the crashing, point blank round shot
Sent destruction to our foe.

I have fought with gun and cutlass
On the red and slippery deck
With all Hell aflame within me
And a rope around my neck.

And still later as a General
Have I galloped with Murat
When we laughed at death and numbers
Trusting in the Emperor’s Star.

Till at last our star faded,
And we shouted to our doom
Where the sunken road of Ohein
Closed us in its quivering gloom.

So but now with Tanks a’clatter
Have I waddled on the foe
Belching death at twenty paces,
By the star shell’s ghastly glow.

So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

And I see not in my blindness
What the objects were I wrought,
But as God rules o’er our bickerings
It was through His will I fought.

So forever in the future,
Shall I battle as of yore,
Dying to be born a fighter,
But to die again, once more.

@BonifaceOption GADOT put one on the 4 lane in a small town just south of me. The town was going to put a nice sign in the middle with its name on it. Blocks were up when they fully opened up traffic. Like the 1st night, a cargo van went through, launched blocks 100ft lol works now though haha

@Will_Tanner_1 Try this one out.

[C.S. Whitley @chriswhit85]

@RandPaul Yall shut the govt down almost every year now because you cant make decisions. How long do we wait on issues and not even to mention the leaks. What do we do? Keep paying taxes (those who do) and watch the football game? Shits getting old

[C.S. Whitley @chriswhit85]

@justinamash @JDVance I'd say everyone is more fed up with congress than anyone. Rattles their sabers, does nothing, checks on their trades, then goes back to doing nothing. STFU. DOGE went in and identified a lot of the issues and nothing was done. Congress is weak, because they want to be.

@grayzoneintel @JohnCooper70209 DNA testing has put a hurtin on old grandma stories about being part creek or cherokee hasn't it haha. I'm in that same boat

[C.S. Whitley @chriswhit85]

@grayzoneintel 95% of my tree is the same story and migration.

[C.S. Whitley @chriswhit85]

@WoahMama__ @grayzoneintel You would be surprised at how helpful Grok can be chasing dead ends. It might not can point you the exact ancestor but it can help find the generation gap and work back toward your line. Helped me on my Paternal side. The more you feed it with info the better it is

[C.S. Whitley @chriswhit85]

@BrooksAustinBA Thank God. I couldn't get that out of my head. Cool sound effect..... like a couple times. Maybe kickoffs lol

[C.S. Whitley @chriswhit85]

@Oceans1Emerald @MiddleearthMixr @kingpilled Also, in the meme it says they took them one by one never owning a home. But when you get a mortgage you own the home, deed in your name. You can sell it at any time. It is your property.

[C.S. Whitley @chriswhit85]

@MiddleearthMixr @kingpilled The point is what is the difference between a 30yr loan that is refinanced 1 or 2 times in the 6-8% range or a 50 year capped at 3-4%. I am a home owner with a 30yr. I am quite familiar with the average home owner. I go to their houses and interact and talk to them daily

[C.S. Whitley @chriswhit85]

@MiddleearthMixr But they aren't renting.... so they do own it. Deed in their name. To refinance or sell within the first 8 years, like 90% of the 30 yr mortgages. But cheaper payment in that time..... @kingpilled had a stream about it
