Archive Research, Photography & Digitisation I offer archive research and document photography at The National Archives and the Imperial War Museum, alongside digitisation of privately held material. As a military historian, I regularly work …

As my maternity leave comes to an end, a reminder that I’m now offering an archive photography service primarily for museums/archives in the south east England (IWM, TNA, BL etc etc) to help make ends meet. Details below:

Someday this will provide fascinating corruption trials. One hopes.

I have some hope that originality textual interpretation might require actual horse riding. And covering their whole circuits all year round. (Rabbit hole searches forthcoming for me this evening on how this used to be done.)

What if — and hear me out here — rebalancing via taxation and properly-funded public services makes for a better foundation from which to build sustainable businesses?

Just spitballing from here in the Netherlands, like.

I’d love to see the insurers who underwrite those risks! The analysis must be something to see.

The best buttons are volume and on/off for the radio. Should never need a touchscreen for that.

Thread. NB: “The deeper issue is scale. European states do not need hundreds of missiles; they need thousands. Current production lines cannot sustain resupply during war, including across the late-2020s, the period officials have identified as the period of greatest danger for Europe.”

I remember all that, as well as the first term when he asked why we left equipment behind and told his son-in-law to figure out how to get it back. I think they are still asking for all of it back. I mean, good luck.

And of course those voters have no clue who was responsible for the rapid advances we've made and how those who came here contributed in every sector and industry of our economy, and would rather suck up propaganda than learn about the contributions of everyone to the county. Ugly.

Confirming the scepticism I had from the earlier weeks of the war where some wonks believed the US was on the right side of cost-exchange ratios with Iran - even before considering impacts on other theatres.

Rep. Rosa DeLauro, top Dem on the House appropriations panel, says DHS is *choosing* not to pay TSA workers while paying its other employees.

She says:

85% of ICE + CBP are being paid
75% of Secret Service
0% of TSA workers

"The Department made that decision," DeLauro says on the House floor.

Iran Built a Military to Survive the American Way of War Iran’s staying power is not proof that the regime is strong; it is proof that it read the American way of war playbook.

This is an interesting case study of our adversaries observing, learning & adapting around preferred western ways of war. The authoritarian learning & adaptation bloc is almost certainly sharing these ideas among themselves.

Fascinating discussion with a colleague; “if you have time for a beach read this Oppenheimer bio at 600 pages is perfect.” I get it. But i’m not likely reading that even at Oppenheimer Beach in St. John.
