As a baby boomer, I grew up watching those black and white newsreels back in the 1950s before the Saturday matinee of the World War II battles both in Europe and in the Pacific.
I remember hearing this song during that era. It's a song of hope. Even in the darkness of war, there is optimism for a better day.
That was a time in our own country of realization that war is hell and that if war must be waged, as FDR declared "the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory."
Do Americans today understand the concept of righteous might? I hope we still understand both parts of that. Righteousness and might. Might in the sense of strength, not might in the sense of maybe.
Do we understand that we must win and that there are no runner-up or consolation trophies? Do we comprehend there is no substitute for victory?
In the Philippines, the surrender at Corregidor led to the Bataan Death March. I wasn't there to second guess General Wainwright. But surrender to an heartless enemy is not a viable option.
We have to confront China and stop the CCP aggression and hegemony now before it reaches the point of no return. Once again the Philippines is Ground Zero where we must take our stand.
You can be certain that the Axis of China, Russia and Iran are more merciless than what we faced 80 years ago. Think that this is December 6, 1941. Instead of a fleet band competition at the Bloch Arena at Pearl Harbor, we are mobilizing to confront an enemy BEYOND our own shores.

Pirates & Privateers has published my latest review:
Pirates, Raiders & Invaders of the Gulf Coast
by Ryan Starrett & Josh Foreman
Land along the Gulf Coast was prime real estate, often fought over between 1699 and 1819. From the French and Indian Wars to Manifest Destiny, this serves as an introduction to the complex history and varied people of this region.

Happy St. Patrick's Day ☘️
My maiden name is O'Malley, a very Irish name. This might surprise you...our family has ties to pirates. So, of course, St. Patrick's Day is a big deal for my family.
One of my favorite books, "Grania," is a novel about real-life Irish chieftain Grace O'Malley, a sixteenth-century heroine whose spirit and passion are the spirit and passion of Ireland.
Grania (Gaelic for Grace) is no ordinary female. She becomes her clan's unofficial head and breadwinner and learns to love a man. At the same time, she enters a lifelong struggle against the English forces of Queen Elizabeth -- her nemesis.
Elizabeth intends to destroy Grania's piracy and shipping empire--and to subjugate Ireland once and for all. But Grania and her lieutenant fight back.
The story of her life is the story of Ireland's fight for solidarity and survival--but it's also the story of Grania's growing ability to love and be strong at the same time.
We all must choose what we stand for, to have the courage to be strong and fight for what we want. At the same time, we need to realize that a life without love is pointless.
It is similar in the world of careers. What do you want to be known for? What do you want to accomplish? What companies do you align with? What would you love to do?
If you need help figuring that out, I'm here for you.
