Kyle, your book seems to have touched a nerve in these United States, and I'm ordering my copy today. Last night I had dinner with my oldest daughter, and when I arrived my nine-year old Grandson James asked me to take his picture with his "gear," as he put it. He went to his room and came back wearing a (plastic) US Army helmet, a green fatigue field jacket (adult size), and carrying his Dad's air gun. (James doesn't care one whit for school, but he knows more US Civl War history than most adults, plays for hours with his sets of toy soldiers, quizzes me incessantly about what I did "during the War", etc.) As it happened, I didn't have my camera with me. (I know, I know, go ahead and throw rocks.) I told him I would come back later and take his picture. He was happy. Ken ----------------------------------- The Rev.
