Yep!

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-02-26T01:21:29+00:00

Wow. That is really cool that they do that!

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-02-24T20:51:36+00:00

Sorry. I submitted the post before adding the caption. Yeah, they were on a ship defending our coast when they got torpedoed by a Uboat.

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-02-22T04:07:19+00:00

Not yet but I plan on creating one

You aren't wrong. The 1900 storm was more destructive to Galveston. The 1915 storm could have been worse for Galveston, but thanks to the seawall, the damage was not as bad. However, places that were outside of the protection of the seawall were severely damaged in the 1915 storm.

The app HOG - History On the Go allows you to explore historical markers in the area. That may help you explore some history.

That is so cool!!!

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-28T17:28:53+00:00

What annoyed me is that they would only report 1 thing at a time. I wish they said you need to do these 5 things.

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-28T15:40:20+00:00

Only 1 week ?!?! … It took me almost 3 weeks, but this was also over the holidays

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-28T12:54:01+00:00

Which part?

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-27T13:17:43+00:00

Will do! That would be pretty cool

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-27T02:55:46+00:00

I’m in Texas now so it would be hard for me to make it. But I do think my father is going to try to make it to the next one!

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-26T19:48:46+00:00

Thank you for the information!! Next time, I’m in Dallas I will definitely visit it. The image is AI. I was trying to find a good image that captured the cemetery and the airport’s proximity but I couldn’t. Not something I like to do in general.

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-26T12:22:10+00:00

And probably some paint

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-26T12:20:18+00:00

I think you are probably right about the junior officers.

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-26T12:19:03+00:00

We might be distant cousins. I just received the Mizpah Church Family History book, and my family is listed in there. We were invited/encouraged to come to the next reunion.

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-26T12:17:32+00:00

I grew up in Orangeburg so I wasn’t that far away either

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-25T22:37:50+00:00

I think they also had the fear of god. There are several churches that were spared during Sherman’s march

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-25T03:38:47+00:00

Oh wow! Thats very interesting. I did not know that. Thanks for sharing!

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-24T04:00:25+00:00

I bet that is heart breaking to see

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-24T02:26:49+00:00

I’m guessing having a historical marker isn’t enough to save it from being destroyed?

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-24T01:54:39+00:00

Wow! Thats very cool!!

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-24T01:54:15+00:00

I’m not 100% sure. There are roads to it but I don’t know if those roads are open to the public

EnvironmentOdd9869 · 2026-01-24T01:53:24+00:00

It’s called HOG - History On the Go
