My Nom de Plume is Historian. I'm interested in the history and philosophy of Liberty,
among other many other things.
A former Boy Scout, I'm a serious student, in no particular order and among other things, of:
-The history of technology, tools and toolmaking;
-Military history, especially irregular warfare;
-Engineering, especially civil and mechanical;
-History and technology of small arms and their employment;
-Wilderness survival, including pioneering and land navigation.
My late father believed that one could not be a truly educated man unless he knew something of the sciences, history,
the performing arts, and had mastered at least one of the manual arts; he was, in addition to being an authority in his
academic field, also a skilled cabinet maker and all around handyman, teaching himself auto mechanics when in his 60s.
He also was a skilled photographer and ran his own darkroom as a very young man.
I agreed with my father, and like him I enjoy working with my hands. I have some skills in several of the manual
arts, and I enjoy both reading and writing. I believe that any day I don't learn something new is a wasted day. I look
forward to what the folks on this forum have to teach me!

Good to be here, NC Scout!
It has been a hectic spring for me, and promises to be an interesting summer, too!

If you’ll notice, your name is glowing Blaze Orange. You’re in the RRG now brother. Do me a favor and see if you can access that area in the commo section.
