Military Train

[NW Mailing List]

Technically, we have been at war since about September 1990.
There's actually a regulation that specifies periods of war, at least for VA benefit purposes.
So that's 28 years.  And still ongoing.  And we thought at 11 years (later changed to 13 years)Vietnam was long.
Some of our young men and women have done their entire 20 during wartime.
Although the point about taking pictures of a trainload of tanks during a war is valid.  Part of the reason we don't have pictures of the hoppers PRR leased to the Virginian during WWII.  
Just for the record.  Back to trains.
