@SistersofB we’ve talked a lot about our survival with “special gear” in the field or tactical dehydration or poorly fitting (non-breathable) gear. So glad to see more demand for prep and care. Can we talk about the judgment of seeking help for a UTI? As if I got one on purpose.

That picture makes me feel emotions that are so difficult. Am I happy they were saved from hunger and labor camps, so sad for the separation or what might have been? Here’s a link to Steve’s story on Waypoints. waypoints.libsyn.com/waypoin…

#OTD 1812 - frigate United States, commanded by Capt. Stephen Decatur, captures British frigate HMS Macedonian. A replica of the Macedonian's figurehead is on the north end of Stribling Walk @NavalAcademy . The monument was restored through the efforts of the Class of 1973.

Looks like serious OORAH! Smells like hard work, determination, sweat, & the field. The picture is an inspiration! Too bad about the haters/harassers in the comments. – at Jefferson, VA

Thanks to these amazing women who proved women could fly military aircraft. And do it well. It took way too long to recognize you, but without you, I would never have dreamed—let alone lived my dream—of being a Naval Aviator.
20 December 1944- #WASP ordered to disband and find a way back home. They wait decades to be remembered and to receive the Nation’s thanks. Bless them all! @WomenInAviation @WomenMilAv8rs @Women_Aviation1 @WomenAtWar2 @WomenOfAviation @AFMuseum @ArmyAirCorps #Aviation #WW2

A while ago, in a response to a tweet about my wife driving her warship, somebody made a comment about women drivers. This is my wife berthing her ship between a container ship and a destroyer. No tankers, no fuss, not easy (video speeded up for ease).
