HISTORY IN THE MAKING 2008-2016

Good luck!

We've spent a good many years discussing politics, life, society and history. Most of all, the makers of history. The great events that changed the world - people, places, actions. Small acts have changed its hard-worn course, and effort and circumstance can make of its small actors immortal greats. In line with that sentiment, it seems pertinent now to recognize the potential of those who've made up this community for years, obvious through their contributions to the spirited debate and discussion that has proceeded here. HITM has sadly gone silent, though perhaps not lacking for things to say about making history, but rather for the realization that it is time we all commenced to do so, and make our mark.

Good luck to you all, see you in the history books!

I can respect your motives. I'm not fond of the US army, but I know where you're coming from with this sig, so I'll give it a thumbs up :D

Whilst I have found some wars questionable at best, I have never stopped supporting the individual soldiers who fought them, and my respect goes out to all who severed :D

This was originally a Veterans' Day picture that I've had for two years. I was going through my old files, and when I found it, I thought of Nightflame so I thought he'd like it. ;)

Yes. The US Army has an elite regiment of little people. Originally created during Vietnam for use fighting in tunnels. The unit was not disbanded because the Army discovered that this special unit made smaller targets and contributed to lower friendly casualties. :D

By the way, I got a new signature too. Probably not that funny when you don't know about French politics, but, well, I bet incog would find it hilarious.
