Actually a participating from 1903 that is depicting one such treaty conference that wept on on a frontier of the valley. You did a reading today that featured a fellow named William Johnson not a lot of contemporary students of history know much about. He was an irish immigrant who came to america, settled on the moha mohawk frontier in up state new york and became very friendly with mohawk indians who were his neighbors and ultimately gained a great deal of influence among them and ultimately was appointed by the British Crown to serve as its agent to the iroquois nations.

Thanks so much for joining us tonight and thanks to the u. S. Army command and general Staff College.

Each one of us would take one of the roles. Of cours

Ill start by saying they had me in grade school. I was a fourth grader, i think, when hollywood released the great escape. The classic adventure drama. It pretty quickly became a tv staple and all of the guys in my class at st. Josephs Elementary School in missouri fell in love with it and wed play it out at recess. Each one of us would take one of the roles. Of course all of us wanted to be mcqueen. I think i wound up with the attenborough role which is fine by me, though, i get executed at the end of the movie. Of course mcqueen survives. What we didnt realize then and what we probably didnt care about was that the movie was based on a true story, the escape of 76 allied soldiers and officers from ger
