War Historian, Michael Woods, my brother

Everyone: simply a Superb selection of large clear pictures from Normanday Invasion in first set and Vietnam War in second set. Boston Globe must have been doing a Memorial Day retrospective and one of my students caught it and sent it to me. In May my US History classes read a lot of first person 'Nam material including a Bloods chapter, and saw most of the movie "Platoon" and also 2 days of "Saving Private Ryan" the beginnings and ending ~45 minutes. Lot of good discussions and writings by them.


Thought you'd appreciate it.
