It was a great last day of panels, I leaned into the Air Force today.
I’m excited for next year. It’s conveniently located near my research area.

This was a great panel.
Most unexpected signage at #SMH2026 may be the "no soccer" sticker inside the lobby's revolving door.
Day 3 of the SMH 2026 Conference is here! A full lineup of fascinating panels today, all leading up to our 5pm keynote: “When is a War not a War? Churchills ‘Iron Curtain’ speech and the Dawn of the Cold War, Eighty Years on.” Don’t miss it! #SMH2026
Hi #SMH2026 students, postdocs, early career scholars, & @cornellupress.bsky.social #MilitaryHistory book fans! I have great and unsurprising news: the display books need to find a home in your suitcase, because they will not all fit in mine. Stop by before noon tomorrow for a free book to help out.
Nerds!!!!!’

As you can see, I have moved into the commuter/student lounge because work doesn’t pause for conferences. 🫡 🗃️

My first Society of Military History Conference. I went to a career panel because why not start now.
Have I mentioned lately that I love conferences? I need to figure out how to get paid just to go to them. 😂

The mints joke got me laughing out loud!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂. #HATM
Okay fine…This Keith David speech is on point…I don’t care if it’s accurate or not!! #HATM 🗃️
They have Garnet’s views & his militance right here but I cannot imagine this speech was given in public in Virginia during slavery. His school in New Hampshire was attacked for its views; imagine how much more violence they’d have seen in the South. #HATM www.zinnedproject.org/news/tdih/he...
I love Robin Hood!!! I don’t about the accents! 🤣
Maybe it’s the poor accent I’m used to. 😂😂😂 not regional per se. My bad.
Yep that’s it!! The
Vapors!!! 😂😂😂
Oh good it’s not just me. 😂
Maybe it’s because I grew up poor in Virginia and North Carolina but these accents got me. They feel off for some reason. #HATM
I hope the Abolition meeting goes off without a hitch, but I suspect shenanigans are about to ensue! 😳😳 #Shenanigans #HATM
Right!!
Oh honor culture wonderful… #HATM
I demand an alligator spin-off show.
The gator gets loose and starts eating slave-patrols.
@herberthistory.bsky.social, have Morgan Freeman call me! 🤓 #HATM
20 Minutes in and bros hair and politics are offensive….😂

Going from Bridgerton to The Grey House I probably should’ve taken a break. 😂
My emotions are all over the place! I went from sad to mad! #HATM 🗃️
