1950's war comics

i read an interesting article about this "Tank Ace" and he credited everything to his crew whom stayed together for a long time , the crew had nicknames just like the guys with Sgt Rock and Sgt Fury did Lafayette G. Pool Lafayette Green Pool (July 23, 1919 – May 30, 1991) was an American tank-crew and tank-platoon commander in World War II and is widely recognized as the US tank ace of aces

snapped a 1,270 game win streak !! now that is something coach Izzo can be proud of

somehow MSU beat the Globetrotters in 2000 With Magic on the team in 2003 the Globetrotters were able to avenge a72-68 loss to the Spartans in November 2000 that snapped a1,270-game win string.

a few years earlier the Spartans did the impossible !!

Johnson joins Globetrotters to defeat former team Associated Press Nov 2, 2003, 07:54 PM ET EAST LANSING, Mich. -- The Harlem Globetrotters, with help from Magic Johnson, beat Michigan State 97-83 in an exhibition Sunday and stretched their winning streak to 283 games.

i will never forget watching Magic's last competitive game , when he played a final time with the Globetrotters.....against his former MSU spartans !

too many of the DC comic battles from the 60's didn't make sense

one of my favorite covers! reminds me of "The bridge at Remagen" not fine but 5.0-5.5

good !!.... it's been a ghost town around here

Brusilov in 1913

brilliant post and words to the wise

just seems weird that a navel battle could potentially pit the Formidable vs Young Leaves

the British ships had great names like: HMS Audacity HMS Formidable other names includes - Glorious , Furious, Illustrious ect

the Japanese destroyers had unusual bnames also irst class destroyers (and over 1,000 tons displacement)—weather, wind, tide, current, wave, moon, season, other natural phenomenon Ikazuchi (雷) Thunder Yukikaze (雪風) Snowy wind Michishio (満潮) High tide Oyashio (親潮) Oyashio Current Sazanami (漣) Ripples on the water surface Takanami (高波) High wave Mikazuki (三日月) Crescent moon Yūgumo (夕雲) Evening cloud Mutsuki (睦月) January in lunar calendar Wakaba (若葉) Young leaves Yūgure (夕暮) Twilight Hibiki (響) Echo

the USA named their carriers after people or places , they still do the Japanese named their carriers differently as shown Hōshō (鳳翔) Flying phoenix Ryūjō (龍驤) Prancing dragon Hiryū (飛龍) Flying dragon Sōryū (蒼龍) Blue (or green) dragon Shōkaku (翔鶴) Flying crane Zuikaku (瑞鶴) Auspicious crane Taihō (大鳳) Great phoenix

here is a comic ,most have never heard of , or seen, not sure if it is drek or not ??

the scooters are everywhere and they are a nuisance , there must be over a thousand of them in our city and obviously the students throw them in the river

More than 100 scooters have been pulled from the Red Cedar River

not valuable but still 81 years old !!

a BA comic but a really good "horror" cover !! Doctor Strange final issue- Feb 1987

i would take the signed 5.5

a stock photo from the internet at Sandy's from nearly the same place as my arm/watch selfie

here is Sandy Beach on a big day (breakneck beach)

the North Shore of Oahu is the big wave surf capitol on Earth ! just look at all those famous big wave places ! Haleiwa, pipeline, sunset beach and Waimea being the most well known but all are great !

a decent body surfing style for Obama , who was born and raised in Hawaii and Sandy's was his favorite spot
