I'll start, the invasion of Normandy when the USS Texas lost visual on the Germans so they flooded half the ship in a controlled flood for a better angle. Also the NUTS story from the 101st Airborne while trapped in Bastogne

Let's make History Together

I love the beauty of the past not just facts, but the passion, power, and love stories that shaped it. I’m drawn to deep talks, meaningful connections, and someone who sees history not as old, but timeless. If you're the type who'd hold hands in a museum or get lost in a documentary with me, we... read more

Dar atsimenat apie holodomorą? Tas pat vyksta ir dabar, ir kaltininkai tie patys, bet juos palaiko kone visi, bet nei vienas neseka įvykių ir seka tik propagandą.

Places that may or may not exist that you want to go to

I would love to go to Libertalia. A pirate colony. According to the tale, it was founded around the 1700s. It just sounds so interesting. And that according to what I've studied, people don't know if it was real or not.

I know young people are confused by the things that are happening now, fearful that it is a dangerous time. They evince a lack of hope. This is only because they do not know their history. Those that forget history are doomed to repeat it. A truth that only some acknowledge. My advice? Learn.

You're not ugly, you're just poor.

Shows, movies, and books really romanticize the past in ways that are totally unrealistic. Admittedly, the beauty we see from historical records often comes from the wealthy, not the majority of populations. Remember, you're not ugly, you're just poor lol.

Nikola Tesla's xray-like invention

"In 1896, Nikola Tesla pointed one of his own inventions at his foot and captured what he called a “shadowgraph” — an early form of X-ray, made using a machine he built entirely himself. A year earlier, a fire had swept through his lab, destroying much of his pioneering work on high-frequency... read more

History whispers warnings through the dust of ages—will we listen?

Understanding history is the key to comprehending the present—and our only chance to shape a better future. The world is changing, the pace of life accelerating, yet we must still carve out time to learn from the past. For in those lessons lie the wisdom to navigate what comes next.
