As a Marketer & Host, when I hear different commercials and/or PSAs it makes me think in depth of what message they, that brand, are trying to put out there. Now as a Veteran & Critical Critic about what I hear, it saddens me and makes me laugh at the same time because, if I have ever experienced your brand one way or another and YOUUUUU decide to do OTHER than what was said on the commercial… You got it all wrong.
Deception in Social Media, Commercials & Quality while marketing is HUGE. And the followers… Psychologically confused. At least that is how I have seen the transition thru time.
To me, as of right now, I’m the Era of Chump, I would recommend those who have a loved one entering, serving or have served in this Country of America to take caution. The scandal has and always has been in the Military too. Pray for those who serve this country proud. Like I did. Before it was taken away. I was hurt & it gave me a different perspective about “Men” in uniform & what is said to me. Yeah, I take that with me considering my vast experience in the Military world.
Integrity. A word many still need to possess. Why promote it if you ain’t it? Period.

NEW MAP: Europe 1812: French retreat from Moscow (24 October 1812) https://omniatlas.com/maps/europe/18121024/ Despite the French capture of Moscow, the Russians refused to negotiate and Napoleon eventually realized that he had no option but to withdraw. In late October 1812 the French marched southwest towards Kaluga, in the hope of taking a fresh route back west, but were halted at Maloyaroslavets. Persuaded that the Kaluga road was no longer viable, Napoleon now decided to return along the same route he had come, a path already devastated by his advance. #1810s #1812 #19thcentury #atlas #europe #europeanhistory #france #history #historyclass #historygram #historyinthemaking #historylesson #historylover #historyschool #historyteacher #maps #napoleon #napoleonic #napoleonicwars #october #october24 #frenchhistory #russianempire #peninsularwar #strategy #militaryhistory #welovehistory #worldhistory #newmap (at Maloyaroslavets)

NEW MAP: Europe 312: Battle of the Milvian Bridge (28 October 312) https://buff.ly/3md3TDJ In late 311 Constantine and Licinius secretly agreed to align against Maxentius and Maximinus Daza. Convinced that Licinius would attack Italy from the northeast, Maxentius was unprepared when Constantine invaded from the northwest. Marching out to confront Constantine’s army as it approached Rome, Maxentius was defeated and killed at the Milvian Bridge in October 312. #312 #ancientrome #milvianbridge #carta #cartography #christianhistory #4thcentury #europe #europeanhistory #geopolitics #histories #historybuff #historyinthemaking #historylesson #historynerd #constantinethegreat #mapping #maps #militaryhistory #october #october28 #roman #romancivilwar #constantine #romanempire #romanhistory #maxentius #romans #worldhistory #newmap (at Ponte Milvio)

NEW MAP: Europe 1812: Battle of Berezina (26 November 1812) https://buff.ly/3xEUvdU Suffering from the winter, exhausted supply lines, and repeated Russian attacks, the French retreat from Moscow soon degenerated into a disaster. In late November Napoleon narrowly managed to escape across the Berezina, evading a last Russian attempt to destroy his army but losing half his remaining troops. The emperor then raced back to Paris to raise new recruits while the remnants of his Grande Armée—some 10,000 of the over 400,000 who had marched on Moscow just months before—crossed out of Russia. #1810s #1812 #19thcentury #atlas #bonaparte #europe #europeanhistory #france #frenchhistory #frenchempire #frenchrevolution #historic #historisch #historyclass #historyfacts #historymaker #historymatters #historyteacher #janeausten #mapmaking #maps #militaryhistory #napoleon #napoleoni #napoleonic #napoleonicwars #november #november26 #russianempire #newmap (at Borisov, Belarus)

NEW MAP: Europe 1813: Sixth Coalition (3 March 1813) https://buff.ly/3BI3Gxr In early 1813, in the wake of the collapse of Napoleon’s invasion of Russia, Russian forces swept into Prussia and the Duchy of Warsaw. In late February the Prussians secretly agreed to an alliance with Russia, but would not declare war on France until Berlin was liberated. A few days later Britain and Sweden also signed an alliance, marking the beginning of the Sixth Coalition against Napoleon. #1810s #1813 #19thcentury #regencyera #carta #cartografia #europe #europeanhistory #frenchempire #germanhistory #bonaparte #historian #historie #historyinthemaking #historylovers #historymaker #historymuseum #instahistory #maps #march #march3 #militaryhistory #napoleon #napoleonic #napoleonicwars #prussia #russianempire #britishhistory #newmap #russianhistory (at Stockholm, Sweden)

NEW MAP: Europe 1813: Battle of Leipzig (16 October 1813) https://buff.ly/3uWwzCp By October 1813 Russian, Prussian, Austrian, and Swedish armies were converging on the French in Saxony, prompting Napoleon to pull back to Leipzig. However, he was still severely outnumbered and, despite Napoleon’s generalship, the Allies decisively defeated the French in a four-day battle. #1810s #1813 #19thcentury #austrianempire #cartographer #cartographic #europe #europeanhistory #frenchempire #frenchmilitary #frenchhistory #germanhistory #heritage #historian #historicalatlas #history #historylesson #historymatters #historyteacher #map #maps #militaryhistory #napoleon #napoleonicwars #october #october16 #prussia #russianempire #saxony #newmap (at Leipzig, Germany)

North America 160 years ago today: Attack on Fort Sumter (12 April 1861) https://buff.ly/2P4fceF Despite the Confederacy’s declaration of independence, the United States Army still garrisoned a number of forts in the south. The most vulnerable was Fort Sumter in Charleston harbor, South Carolina, which desperately needed to be resupplied. However when newly elected US President Lincoln ordered the navy to ship in supplies, the Confederate government considered it an act of war and attacked the fort from land. The American Civil War had begun. #1861 #19thcentury #americancivilwar #americanhistory #april #april12 #confederacy #fortsumter #historicalmaps #histories #historyfacts #historygram #historymajor #historymatters #historyschool #mapping #maps #northamerica #southcarolina #militaryhistory #ushistory #uscivilwar #confederatestates #victorian #victorianera #abrahamlincoln #worldatlas #todayinhistory #historytoday #thisdayinhistory (at Fort Sumter Tours)

NEW MAP: Europe 276: Marcus Claudius Tacitus (early 276) https://buff.ly/3sFZ99Q In late 275 the Roman Senate ended the post-Aurelian interregnum by appointing the aged Marcus Claudius Tacitus as emperor. Tacitus soon faced serious challenges: that winter Germanic tribes invaded Gaul while the Heruli overran much of Asia Minor. He defeated the Heruli in 276, but died—probably assassinated—while returning west, after a reign of just six months. #thirdcentury #asiaminor #ancientrome #bithynia #cappadocia #carta #europe #europeanhistory #gothic #galatia #goths #historical #historicalmaps #histories #historybuff #historymajor #historymaker #historynerd #lowergermania #romanemperor #maps #militaryhistory #pontus #roman #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #spqr #uppergermania #newmap (at Ankara, Turkey)

NEW MAP: Europe 275: Assassination of Aurelian (September 275) https://buff.ly/3rq8iBQ Aurelian’s victory in Gaul restored unity to the Roman Empire, a feat the Senate acknowledged by granting him the title Restitutor Orbis (“Restorer of the World”). The emperor then set his sights on Persia only to be assassinated by some of his staff in September 275. His sudden death shocked the army, who turned to the Senate to select a new emperor. Over the ensuing 2–3 months of consultation, there was an interregnum, during which Aurelian’s widow Ulpia Severina seems to have continued to preside as empress. #thirdcentury #alemanni #ancientrome #aurelian #cartografia #europe #europeanhistory #romanemperor #historia #historicalmap #historie #histories #historygeek #historymajor #historymuseum #persianempire #map #mapping #maps #militaryhistory #roman #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #semnones #september #spqr #thrace #caesar #newmap (at Caenophrurium)

Progress on my new impression - 1st Battalion Dorset Regiment, 1917-18
I chose this particular impression because my Rev War impression is for the 54th Regiment of Foot. The Dorset Regiment was formed in 1881 under the Childers Reform when the 39th and 54th Regiments amalgamated together. The 39th became the 1st Battalion Dorsets while the 54th became the 2nd Battalion - so if I really wanted to be thematically consistent, I would be doing 2nd Battalion Dorsets, but the problem with that is that the 2nd Battalion served only on the Middle Eastern front during WW1. As there are no Middle Eastern front reenactments in North America - chose the next best thing,

54th Regiment of Foot, 1794. Now that’s what I call a “campaign look.”
