30th August: Rapunzel.
In 1862 in Northern Virginia, however, Major General John Pope was about to get his long awaited comeuppance. Lee was ready to take the offensive against the man he had come to despise, for his over confident bombast and disregard and disrespect of Virginia and the men he had come east to command.
Not heeding his subordinates’ requests for caution, Pope tried once again to break Jackson’s battered Corps(one Brigade did break, but others plugged the gap). On the union far left were only two brigades of Infantry and they were to be assailed by ten times their number. Three Southern Divisions, Hood’s, Kemper’s and Jones’ crashed onto the field, making short work of the outnumbered Northern troops.
Pope did well to recognise the danger when it appeared and sent four Brigades from three different Divisions to hold at Henry House Hill on his left. Remember this was ground fought over 13 months ago, by much the same men and officers, although most were now promoted.
This time around there would be no rout. Understandably, there was much jubilation on the side of the Southerners and a great loss of morale on the Northern side. This sense of martial superiority, begun last Summer at 1st Manassas, was to continue and come to a head on the field of Gettysburg another Summer from now.
ONE SIXTH SCALE HOBBY
-
Does any one else collect one-sixth scale action figures and diaromas? I’d love to hear about it and see people’s collections. I have a huge collection of figures, vehicles, and diaromas-most of them never seen on camera.
I created a story line of an alternative WW2 universe, somewhere in the Philippines. It takes place in Spring 1942, hehe. Sound familiar? Think Scooby-Doo meets GI Joe. I’ll attach an old video I did some type back. My editing skills have greatly increased, but I’ve got little alone time with my hobby because of young kids. My wife finally said I had to stop collecting GI Joes, haha.
I’ll try to make a video of what’s on my supper table right now. It’ll blow your mind. Anyways, mabuhay.

Spring 1942, alternative universe, somewhere in the Philippines. My best video yet! Bigger, better, and badder. Come watch GI Joe defend the Philippines from Cobra, the Japanese, and even the Communists. Stay cool, stay brave, and stay Joe. Mabuhay.
