Frederick Douglass quote from 1857:

Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightening; they want the ocean without the roar of its many waters. The struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, or it may be both. But it must be a struggle. Power conceded nothing without a demand; it never has and it never will.

Anyway, good morning from this evergreen quote from a guy we teach the kids is a great American hero

A Taliban revenge killing prompts questions, removal of an acclaimed documentary National Geographic has removed the Emmy-winning film “Retrograde” from its streaming platforms, after criticism from veterans and inquiries from The Washington Post.

The Washington Post writes about National Geographic pulling a documentary from streaming services after at least one Afghan who worked with American soldiers was killed after clips circulated in AFG on TikTok. Lots of shame to go around here, NatGeo, directors, US Army….

The first aircraft Bob Reierson got up close to was one that had to make a pit stop near his home in Wisconsin. It would be his first step to becoming a US Army Air Force pilot in #WW2. Join us for part 1 of our chat with Bob about the A-20 Havoc!
