I'm prior military (as are several generations of my family) so I can relate to the military collections. Both my hubby and I were in the Army. And it's funny because when I was stationed at Fort Riley, KS my Grandpa told me about the time he spent there when it used to be Camp Funston. So that was cool.Rebekah Purdyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04026278520434226775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5567078841309273948.post-76660899754383484272012-04-27T10:02:57.690-05:002012-04-27T10:02:57.690-05:00Late to the blog, but I have obsessions too.
Non...Late to the blog, but I have obsessions too. <br />None related to Star Wars, though I did enjoy the first two films made (which, I understand, are now called numbers 4 & 5. Didn't like the third one and couldn't sit through the installments of the prequel series.<br />And, in trying to discuss this, we've come to one of the reasons I don't care much for the Star Wars brand: too confusing! When the fourth film made becomes episode # 1 and the first one made becomes episode # 4 ... they're just inviting me departure.<br />So what are my obsessions: Well, I collect militaria ... items of military gear or uniforms or other hardware (including models of aircraft, tanks, jeeps, etc.) I focus mostly on American gear, but have some from other countries. Ifocus mainlyon WW2, though I have a piece from Spanish-Am. War, lots from WW1, Korea, Vietnam, and Desert Storm.jeff7salterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00530506418169450704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5567078841309273948.post-35350582259610950622012-04-25T16:17:04.216-05:002012-04-25T16:17:04.216-05:00LOL--Thanks Elaine!

That comes across in your work and why Cinderella Complex is such an awesome read. <br /><br />I have one confession though---I've never seen Star Wars.<br /><br />I've seen bits and pieces on TV but never wanted to sit through the whole thing. I'll go hide in shame now. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5567078841309273948.post-48965395741923109622012-04-25T11:03:17.080-05:002012-04-25T11:03:17.080-05:00LOVE the picture!
