Sometimes, I wish I could join the Army. Or the Air Force. Or perhaps the Marines. Or maybe the Navy.

I know I would look dignified in a uniform.

My love for all things military extends to history, too. I am fascinated by battles and strategies. It is particularly exciting to visit places where some of those battles took place. That is how I managed to find myself here, the site of the Second Battle of Manassas.

I'm planning to spend a little time here soaking in the history of the place. I plan to sign up for one of the tours they offer.

Til then, "At Ease!"
