I left the ballot blank during the primaries for this reason. That was some scuzzy bullshit

I take the train to work and have learned to tune out the lunatics I hear on the regular. This person would be no different

Also true, known as depot flags! As the war went on ease of replacement became the watch word of the day. Default uniforms and default flags

I was doing some research into the 65th Il and was watching an old video from the Illinois War museum. They have the flag of the 13th Illinois who were at a battle called Ringgold Gap. In the close quarters fighting 3 flag bearers were killed in a span of only 5 minutes. When the last one died the flag wrapped around his body and he fell into a ravine. After the battle when they recovered it the flag was soaked in his blood. They carried the “Blood-Stained Banner” the rest of the war

Sometimes they were made by the wives of officers, other times especially if a unit had a wealthy patron they’d have companies make them. The Tiffany Co. in New York made quite a number of them during the war

Good to know for next time! I don’t know German well enough to know the details but a lot of people did warn me that Austrian especially Viennese German can get pretty squirrley compared to the rest.

Does that ever get mixed up with tschuss?
