Good God, y'all

As a military historian, I honor the men and women who suit up to do jobs that range from brain-numbingly mundane to mind-bogglingly terrifying, in the service of their nation’s policies. This does not mean that I agree with all the conflicts to which they are sent; there have been several in my own lifetime that were utterly despicable.

So today’s earworm is Edwin Starr’s anthem from my youth, “War”.

Crank up the volume.
