Hiroshima

John Hersey

Do kids still read the book "Hiroshima" by John Hersey in school? If not, they should. Definitely my favorite assigned book of 9th grade. Also a good introductory primer to what happens when human flesh gets vaporized in a giant unforeseen radiation blast

In His Own Words: The Essential Speeches of Adolf Hitler

Adolf Hitler
Michael TraceyMichael Tracey

@Europids @MuhHeidigger No, I'm pretty sure it's not similar to likening George Washington to Adolf Hitler. Here's the founder and chief ideologist of Azov in his own words. Eager to learn how the "dissident right" is actually not in affinity with the beliefs espoused https://t.co/BjQ1xi8DVx

Jeremy Black
Michael TraceyMichael Tracey

Sorry to all you Tank Guys out there, but your unwavering, weirdly dogmatic definition of the word "tank" is conceptually incoherent Read this excerpt from "Tank Warfare" by Jeremy Black (Indiana University Press, 2020) and then cool it with all the idiotic nitpicking meltdowns https://t.co/9pThAq5z90

Air Force Handbook 1: Airman

U. S. Air Force
Michael TraceyMichael Tracey

According to the affidavit Jack Teixeira had access to the highly classified material because he was granted access pursuant to the job he was given. So the answer to "How did a 21-year-old airman get access to all this Top Secret material???" is "the Air Force gave it to him" https://t.co/7KAOvkzHjH
