♫ Edwin Starr - War (What is it good for) ♫

 

War, huh, yeah

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing, uhh

War, huh, yeah

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing

Say it again, y'all

War, huh (good God)

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing, listen to me, oh

 

War, I despise

'Cause it means destruction of innocent lives

War means tears to thousands of mother's eyes

When their sons go off to fight

And lose their lives

 

I said, war, huh (good God, y'all)

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing, just say it again

War (whoa), huh (oh Lord)

What is it good for?

Absolutely nothing, listen to me

Having photographed this operation numerous times it was always a joy to see the care used in maintaining these units well into the UP era. This shot was taken in March 2000 and look at how clean these units are. The mechanical staff at Helper really took great care of these units.

My partner's dogs Oski and Lucy associate me with walks, so that every time I visit, they get very excited.

So we don't use the word 'walk' or 'the W word' but instead refer to taking them for a Weetabix, though there are signs already that they've made the connection, leaving us no choice but to change it again.

Maybe I'll be taking them for a honey nut cluster at the weekend if the weather will allow it.

NS GP38-2 5333 leads steel coil loads West through East Chicago, IN.

We stumbled by chance on a coast guard rescue operation while visiting Las Teresitas.

 

Helicopter and boats were searching around a specific spot on the coast.

 

We checked later and found out that tragically two young swimmers got trapped in a small cave and drowned before help arrived.

From my perch above the road, I could spy on the snow removal operations

Obsidian Task Force has now secretly invaded Germany, and are now undergoing an attack on the capitol.

I137 heads west into the severe storm rolling in with the Operation Lifesaver leading. They're running west on main 1 around the C700 that's been holding them up the entire way.

 

I'm standing on the Erie Lackawanna eastbound main at the site of EL's McCoy St. Yard which is now a bus station.

Operation Shingle (January 22, 1944), during the Italian Campaign of World War II, was an Allied amphibious landing against Axis forces in the area of Anzio and Nettuno, Italy. The operation was commanded by Major General John P. Lucas and was intended to outflank German forces of the Winter Line and enable an attack on Rome. The resulting combat is commonly called the Battle of Anzio. (Read the article on wikipedia).

 

Unfortunately, this is only a very small part of the cemetery.

Abandoned sometime ago, was used by an artist for a "1,000 shadows" project - seems to have gone downhill since then.

Operation Barbarossa started on June 22nd, 1941, with the Germans rapidly invading the Soviet Union and decimating Soviet forces in virtually every battle. Hitler's plan was to conquer Eastern Europe for future German colonization called "Lebensraum". Ukraine was especially desired since at the time it was the breadbasket of Europe. When the Germans were conquering the Soviet Union, the Ukrainians and other peoples welcomed them as heroes because of the fact they "freed" them from communist oppression. The Holodomor was fresh in the average Ukrainians memory which was an artificial famine that killed millions and they were still resentful towards Stalin.

 

Two groups that wanted to take advantage of this moment was the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) which was into Italian fascism, was led by Andriy Melnik and the younger more violent OUN-B, was National Socialist which was led by Stepan Bandera. They originally existed because they were angry that Poland was "occupying" the province of Galicia which is claimed by both Poles and Ukrainians (even to this day).

 

However, the Ukrainians would learn that the Nazis were replacing one form of oppression with another. Hitler hated Slavic peoples and wanted them enslaved, "transferred" (possibly to Siberia) or at worst exterminated. When the OUN declared an independent Ukrainian state, that was shut down as quickly as possible. The Nazis committed atrocities against the Ukrainians which soon led to the growth of more partisan groups and led to some joining the Soviet army by the time they started "liberating" it from the Nazis.

 

In a last ditch effort, the Nazis freed imprisoned Ukrainian nationalist leader, Stepan Bandera to inspire the Ukrainians but that ultimately failed. Even during his imprisonment all the OUN-B did was mass murder Poles in the provinces of Galicia and Volhynia. Today he's seen as a controversial figure as he is popular in Western Ukraine which is full of Catholic Ukrainians and hated in Eastern Ukraine which is full of Orthodox Russians.

April 2030, after information that has been intercepted by the crushed Warsaw Pact about the weak points of DARKWATER's defense around New York City and the massive planning that followed, the attack may commence. Platoons of EU soldiers infiltrate and squeeze through the cracks in the defense system. The most efficient way to infiltrate was to move through towering crates and harbor ships to attack the grand city.

A full on strike is already prepared in response to the push by the leaders of the PRC to end the peace with Shiryoku, and a heavy offensive will begin in the first few days of August.

Almost done for the season! All the volunteers and most of the staff are finished for this year. Just the shippers remain, but have a break right now until January 7th. The remainder of all the shoebox gifts are destined for West Africa. We will start to ship on January 9th. I will be part of this, along with my son.

Happy New Year, my Flickr friends! I will be out of the country on a road trip until January 6th.
