I *updated my signed academic book collection to include several newly autographed books from #SMH2026. Thank you for your contributions! 🖊️ 📖
* Not pictured: signed books at the office, which include ~every~ book from BJ Armstrong and Trent Hone.
For the final day of our Military History exhibit, @fordhampress.bsky.social contributor Cameron Zinson stopped by to take a photo with his book, Shots in the Dark. #smh2026
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.

The 2026 Society for Military History Conference was a blast. Already looking forward to reconnecting with everyone again next year in New Orleans. #SMH2026
As we wrap up this year’s conference, thank you to everyone who attended! If you took photos, please share them and tag us—we’d love to showcase the great moments and memories from the event.

Last day book find at #SMH2026 @juliairwin.bsky.social
Intrigued? Me too. Why not come to Pentagon 1 for the Tail End Charlie session of #SMH2026 and find out more
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.
Another great pair of papers from @abbyswhitlock.bsky.social and @edgitre.bsky.social at #SMH2026, on Army Talks and GI Roundtables, and segregation and desegregation in the SWW respectively.
This year’s Society for Military History conference has been an absolute joy. It’s so great to be around fellow historians and growing from different perspectives! Big thanks to @craigbrucesmith.bsky.social for leading such a great panel! #SMH2026
Much missed at #SMH2026: @dgershenowitz.bsky.social
Food poisoning has me down for the count today. Sad to have missed my panel this morning and seeing other friend’s panels today. But my body said “you’re not leaving this bed, ma’am!” 😭 #SMH2026
Yesterday I got to enjoy @meganahamilton.bsky.social's excellent paper on learning and innovation in the SWW. Today I'm listening to @milhistcurator.bsky.social , @mhptpodcast.bsky.social and @amyjay401.bsky.social on making military history accessible and connecting people with the past #SMH2026
A group of beautiful books on a red tabletop with faces out.
Great news, #SMH2026 - @cornellupress.bsky.social is still at it, with #Battlegrounds books at 40% off and free shipping and stellar covers and why haven't you checked them out yet I'll wait.

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

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
I had a fantastic day with some incredibly informative panels. I’m looking forward to tomorrow. #SMH2026 🗃️
Most unexpected signage at #SMH2026 may be the "no soccer" sticker inside the lobby's revolving door.
Make sure to stop by Arlington Ballroom to browse for books and socialize in between panels. #SMH2026
Having massive FOMO seeing my friends having fun at #SMH2026. 🥲
Having a great time at #SMH2026

Me and Heather Haley
Me and Craig Bruce Smith
The best part of conferences? Catching up with friends 🫶🏻 Cameron Z., Heather H., & @craigbrucesmith.bsky.social #SMH2026
Really enjoying this panel on AI at #SMH2026. Lots of tools to make use of, but I'm also looking forward to sharing what IWM has managed to do so far
3 American Revolution panels at #SMH2026 today! Is it an anniversary?

Excited to hear my friends Bratten & Heft, along with their co-authors, chat about their recent publication Forging the Framework: Evolving Law, Policy, and Doctrine for the U.S. Military’s Domestic Response (Army University Press, 2025). #SMH2026

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. 😂
