Been gone way too long
 

Hey all,

I can't believe that I have been away from the forum so long. I am knee deep in my Ph.D. program and will have the opportunity to corrupt young minds this fall teaching US History to 1877 :D. I am looking forward to it, as while I'll have to cover some social history stuff to keep up appearances, I hope to provide the kids a course with more military and political history. I am thinking about using Joseph Plumb Martin's memoir on the Rev. War as one reading.

I am still involved with Civil Air Patrol and recently was promoted to Captain. I am the Deputy Commander for Cadets in the squadron and love it, the cadets help keep me energetic, even if I am a bit down.

Anyway, I hope to catch up with y'all and hope all is well.

Daniel

Glad to hear from you and glad to hear your are still working on the Ph.D. :)
