Chateau Thierry is France. Major WW 1 battleground. Belleau Wood was also WW1, US Marines baptism of fire. Victory at high cost. [Edit] New Orleans is the site of the museum, probably because the Higgins boats were made there (small boats whose ramp dropped in front).
See you this weekend on 6-1296 minus 432(that tower is under construction) from EN24! about 60 miles from the SD border in SW MN! I will be on SSB only! I run big antennas and power on 2m and 23cm, only 3 watts on 33cm but to a 14wl long antenna with 21DBi gain. 100 watts on 1.25m to a 10 element yagi and 100 on 6m to a 5 element yagi! Only 1 point per band, not per mode!
The Central & Northern CA Bozo Nets group will be hosting a RU-vid live stream on Saturday night to help people in the region make contracts during the contest. We will be on 1.25m, 70cm, & 23cm but you can always get people to switch to 2m & 6m if you need them on those bands.
I saw pictures like that in 8th grade, talked to the guy who took them. He explained how and where. It was not held back for "tender sensibilities'. We then understood that there are evil people in this world. This should not be hidden or censored. Thank you for sharing.
An instrument of the Maidenhead Locator System (named after the town outside London where it was first conceived by a meeting of European VHF managers in 1980), a grid square measures 1° latitude by 2° longitude and measures approximately 70 × 100 miles in the continental US.
Amanda, thank you for the photos. They display the true horror of war, something we must try to avoid, however, there are times when there is no alternative, if we are to remain free. In war there are no winners, every side suffers, win or lose, but there are times when a war has to be fought, otherwise the dictators will win, and that is something that must not be allowed to happen.
