Brothers In Arms
I wonder if they had 9 copies of this created
I've never seen a crayon portrait with so many faces
It seems like it should be in a museum
One of my all time favs
Should be easy for me to clean up and fix the corners

When I watch movies of #WWI #WWII, #Korea, #Vietnam, I just can't help to think how far #Americans have gone to ignore the depravity of war, and the horrors that this country sends our own to suffer through, not to mention the turmoil our forces inflict on others, for no war is honorable, never is killing in the name of defense honorable, we should should not be in any war now or in the future, we must make the horrors of war history alone, and burry the fear and ignorance that leads men to savagely attack one another, I sit here now to tell you, there is no honor in destroying your self to destroy someone else, honor comes from compassion, understanding, and finding the common ground that unites us all;

When the Grey Cup Took a Break: War & Disputes 🚫🏈
Imagine a year without the Grey Cup! From 1916 to 1918, the championship was paused due to the profound impact of World War I. Then, in 1919, a rules dispute caused another cancellation. It's a reminder of how much this game means to Canada, even when history intervened. #Canada #GreyCup #CFLHistory #WWI
Good Morning #Canada
I'm in Toronto staying at my daughter's apartment and just on our way out for breakfast. This afternoon we're off to see the Toronto Sceptres take on the Seattle Torrent. First time for me at a #PWHL game and I'll update you later on my impressions.
Women's hockey in Canada has a long history dating back to the 1890s with teams supported by colleges and universities. They played in hoop skirts because hockey pants would have been scandalous, but originally hitting was allowed.
The attached article reports on a golden era during #WWI when Women's Hockey had some commercial success. Actually it was about exploitation and the commercial success only benefited the male organizers.
