I’m giving the other place a try for a while: bsky.app/profile/akimlinger.…
Maybe I’ll see you there 🫡

France - Argonne - Chevières.
Reburial of WWI Ace Capt. H. Coolidge.
Coolidge was shot down and crashed in Chevières where he was buried.
His grave got threatened to be washed away by the Aisne and so the Chevières citizens provided for a new last resting place.

My Dearest Followers:
Many of you have asked why do I love #Mississippi, despite of its unfortunate history and reputation.
As I previously shared, my passion of the Civil War commenced in #Vicksburg, not in other visited CW battles. #Grant Presidential Library and Museum is in MS.
The final reason is MS #CivilRights Museum in #Jackson. As I have shared, there is no other Civil Rights Museum in the South and Deep South like Mississippi’s.
It is raw and doesn’t deviate from or ignore the evils, horrors, racism, segregation, lynching, and violent crimes committed in MS. It takes accountability and is in your face museum.
This will be a long thread as I will be sharing a series of photos with you.

Clearly Air Canada heard about my move and knew how regularly I need to get to the UK for all things @GreatWarGroup !!!
