Apologies if any of our Colonial brethren have seen these but I found them fascinating and it look like its going to be a series.

A lot of good photos. Some I've seen, some I haven't. Thanks for the post!
Here is some 3D Civil war photography. They'll even send you a free pair of 3D glasses to view them with. http://www.civilwar.org/photos/3d-photography-special/

Awesome photos! BTW I don't think colonial is an insult we'll at least not when Pagan uses it. I won't even go into the whole helping us out thing but hey ho and when you say "we" does that include you?
Worth a watch I think :P. Doug Stanhope on nationalism - YouTube

I don't care about the "colonial" stuff, just don't call me a "Yankee". Nothing against Northerners, but it just sounds weird to be called that when your from Georgia!

I believe he is referring to WWII.
Edit: Nevermind, User Name's suggestion makes more sense.

Probably referring to the War of 1812. Which I consider more of a draw really.
No problem! I'd been looking for an excuse to share that link for a while.

These are amazing! I haven't seen most of them before. It really blows my mind when I see photography from this era because its supposed to be so, you know, old. But it is one of the most fascinating historical periods for me, especially militarily. Hell, check out those 300-pounders

Speaking as someone who thoroughly enjoyed the "Weapons that should be added to RO2" thread I found the comments section below equally enjoyable.
Other than that, thanks for the pics! |
