Today's story and sketch by me #1385, is about the pedestrian that just dropped out of a dimension portal onto a banana palm. Where this alien came from, and why he, she , or it, arrived driving a full combat mobility transport vehicle, to this Tropical Volcanic Planet we call Budahunga. Is a very big mystery. As I slowly hover above hoping this entity is friendly, and doesn't get hostile, before I can make personal contract. But as I'm approaching I having second thoughts, about this contact, I make the executive decision, to get Deputy Cosmo here as soon as possible to make first contact. How that first contact turns out, will surely be interesting, but that will have to be a story for another time, until then Tata the Rod Blog.
Performing at the Poznan 2018 Air Show is this Polish Air Force Mig 29 "Fulcrum". Fantastic weather and very good show this was definitely one of the highlight's for me. This show was everything that could be wished with plenty of burners, loud as you like and full of Smokey engines from this older Aircraft.

Fotografies de la zona de combats de la Batalla del Ebre (1938).
Al sector de Els Barrancs, entre Vilalba dels Arcs i La Pobla de Massaluca, s'ha rehabilitat un sector del front republicà . Tota aquesta part de la linea al nord de Vilalba no va patir cap ofensiva feixista en tota la batalla, i fou abandonada els darrers dies per retirar-se cap als ponts de Riba-roja i Flix.
La batalla de l'Ebre (25 juliol - 16 novembre de 1938) fou la més important i mortifera de la guerra civil espanyola. Hi ha que també la consideren també la més decisiva, però crec que per desgracia la guerra ja estava decidida de molt abans, com a minim des del trencament del front d'Aragó el 9 de març del mateix any.
Tot i que l'exèrcit republicà creuà l'Ebre el 25 de juliol del 1938 per molts punts entre Mequinensa i Amposta, la major part dels combats de la batalla es donaren a la Terra Alta, a la zona entre Vilalba dels Arcs, La Fatarella, Camposines i Gandesa, a més de la Serra de Pandols.

============================================
This is part of the Ebro battlefield (1938), in Southern Catalonia.
North of Vilalba dels Arcs there's a sector of the Republican frontline that has been cleanded and restored; it's called Els Barrancs. All the Ebro front from Vilalba dels Arcs to La Pobla de Massaluca and up to the river was a quite inactive one, and stod fixed from the 26th of July to the early days of November, when the Republican forces withdrawed towards the Ebro bridges of Riba-roja and Flix.
The Battle of the Ebro (July 25 - November 16, 1938) was the most important and deadlier of the Spanish Civil War. There are those who also consider it the most decisive, but I think that unfortunately the war was already decided long before, at least since the breaking of the front of Aragon on March 9 of the same year.
The battle began with the greatest offensive made by the Republican forces, when they crossed the river Ebro between Mequinensa and Amposta (especially between Riba-roja and Miravet), and advanced to the line La Pobla de Massaluca -Vilalba dels Arcs -Gandesa - Serra de Pandols . But in just 48 hours, the dazzling advance was stopped short. Then Franco decided to crush the republican forces hill by hill (with massive artillery and bomber barrages), in a battle of attrition identical to the First World War for which the Republicans had no resources or alternative, especially with the river behind them. The main assaults, which lasted from August 10 to October 29, were concentrated in a very small and devastated area: the triangle Vertex Gaeta - Corbera - Camposines.
Finally, a final offensive on October 30 occupied the ridge of the Serra de Cavalls, making the entire Republican bridgehead unsustainable, which managed, however, to withdraw in an orderly manner until November 16. But the damage was already done, and there were no forces left for a proper defense of Catalonia, which fell three months later. Then, fascist darkness.

Despite the intensity of the firepower that was being hurled at them it was the immense bravery of the Combat Medics who triaged and in many cases saved many lives that day on the very beach that they had just landed.
This concrete block contains a plaque which bears the names of those brave medics.

A near-future unmanned battle mech, developed by the USMC.
Not really a "mech builder", but I had fun with this one. My entry for Sopwith_The_Camel's mech contest.
A wonderful morning watching adders mating & two males in combat which lasted a good eight minutes.
I was so engrossed & scared to move that I hardly took any photos.
Fabulous :^)
Three more battles today at this woodland site. Unfortunately, all the combat has been in scrub/brambles so it's very hard to photograph. This was the best of a very unfocused bunch.
... La journée a été chaude et collante... aucun vent pour se rafraîchir... Sur mon voilier j'ai ancré... tout était très calme... aucun signe de pluie prévue... Soudainement.. le ciel est devenu noir... le vent s'est levé et à l'intérieur d'une heure... 3 orages violents se sont produits... À l'ouest... il y avec ce fort combat entre les gros nuages menaçant... le fort fort vent et le Roi Soleil qui venait nous saluer...
