Howdy, folks. Nice story about Sgt. York. Interesting that he converted from isolationism to interventionist before WWII, particularly where he was a member of a pacifist sect.

I have to agree that the film Sgt. York was not the best of the genre.

I got a real laugh last night during the Academy Awards when they were talking about Cold Mountain and referred to the Civil War as "the most violent period in American history," as if it was some kind of crime spree. Those airheads really are clueless about our history.
