Bayonet Used As Spear!

CSA: Battle of the Crater – Native Americans Vs Black Americans! (29.6.2025)

A huge crater (and hole) was blown in the Confederate trenchworks surrounding Petersburg. Meanwhile, thousands of blue-clad Union soldiers had crept-up to the Confederate lines and were lying-down in strict military formation waiting for the explosion – and the signal to attack. The idea was to run into the gap and spread-out on both sides – killing and maiming the Confederate defenders until the area was taken. It is said that a number of high-ranking Union Field Officers were killed as the attack unfolded and that the Union-attack had to be led by the lower-level Field Officers who had no one directing the attack. Instead of running around the lip of the crater on both-sides – the Union men were led directly into the centre of the crater – and hit the steep and unclaimable wall at the other end. The Union soldiers became trapped and there was a sickening crush of bodies. Already the muddy water started to run red with blood!

CSA: Remembering the Bravery of “Irish” Company “K” – 15th Alabama – Little Round-Top [2.7.1863] – Gettysburg! (3.4.2025)

The weather was hot – and the Confederates had to advance over open ground before storming an inclined slope (in the form of a steep hill) – with the intention of sweeping the Federals off its top and consolidating the victory. The previous day had seen the Confederates sweep the Federals out of West and Central Gettysburg – and into the hills to its East. Washington was just 80 miles to the South – and legend has it that Lincoln was packing his belongings to flee! I have audio-typed part of a chapter from Stephen Sears’ book – carefully reproducing the text from an Audible edition (in my native British English). This provides a general background to the battle – but does not mention the Irish specifically – other than one or two fighting for the Union. For the story of “Company K” of the 15th Alabama Regiment of the Confederate States of America (CSA) – we must turn to the excellent work of Phillip Thomas Tucker – who has produced an excellent book examining the contribution to the Confederate cause made by the Irish!

Dead Ukrainians in Kursk - Falsely Published in the West as "North Koreans!"

Russia: North Korean Army Excels During Battle of Plekhov Village! (19.12.2024)

The North Koreans attacked in an open “straight line” whilst crossing the minefield, which caught the Neo-Nazi Ukrainians off-guard. If a mine array was detonated by the advancing North Koreans, at most only one Vanguard Unit was sacrificed, leaving follow-up troops to drive straight through. After crossing the minefield, the North Korean soldiers quickly changed from a straight line to a “three-pronged” battle formation – with bayonets fixed. Each prong possessed its own firepower point, cooperating tacitly with the other two prongs. North Korean soldiers possess a strong learning ability. Not long after they arrived in Russia, they soon mastered Russian weapons. Using Russian weapons, the strength of the North Korean Army was greatly improved. The Neo-Nazi Ukrainian Intelligence (led by the US) – lined-up their Ukrainian dead on the ground, and whilst blotting-out the faces and badges, took photographs which were immediately released to the Western media – falsely claiming these were dead “North Koreans”!

An Injured Stonewall Jackson!

How Confederate General “Stonewall” Jackson Overcame Disability! (20.11.2024)

The Ancient Greek idea of inner strength – mediated through a cultivated wisdom – was the Classical model Stonewall Jackson used to enhance his own health and social standing. Due to his honesty and humility, those who personally encountered his personality were always drawn toward his charisma. Although his family were not willing to “waste” money on a military education for their son, a friend of the family was made aware of an unusual Scholarship being offered which permitted “one” successful candidate to enter West Point to train as an “Officer” in the US Army. Around five very clever men competed for this Scholarship – and it was predictably won by an impoverished “Lawyer”. However, this “Lawyer” came from a privileged background and lasted just one-day when subjected to military discipline at West Point. The Scholarship was once again thrown open to the four remaining men – through another round of examinations – and Stonewall Jackson prevailed. This is how Stonewall Jackson gained access to West Point.

P. G. T. Beauregard - Creole

Brigadier General P. G. T. Beauregard: How a “Mixed-Race” Confederate General Defeated the North! (14.11.2024)

Indeed, many of his aunts and uncles were White people who had inter-married with Black, Mexican, and Native American partners. Indeed, whilst serving in the US Army prior to the war – P. G. T. Beauregard – his advancement was blighted by the fact that the US Military Authorities purposely discriminated against him on the grounds that he was “Not Trustworthy” – as he was the product of a family that deliberately “Race-Mixed”. This judgement kept him out of West Point as a Teacher (he had trained there in his youth – but was not permitted to pursue a substantive career in that institute) – until he was mistakenly posted as an “Instructor” at this College of Officer-Training in the US during 1861 (just prior to the breakout of hostilities). His appointment lasted just one-day until the mistake was realised by a Union pen-pusher. P. G. T. Beauregard was immediately removed on the grounds that the US does not allow any but “pure-raced” individuals exercising direct influence over the developing generations of US Military Officers. Indeed, the US Authorities applied this judgement by continuously referring to P. G. T. Beauregard as a “Creole” – implying that he was psychologically and physically “inferior” due to “race-mixing”.

Eire Harp - St Patrick Battalion!

St Patrick Battalion – How the Irish Changed Sides During the US Invasion of Mexico! (17.9.2024)

Fortunately, night fell and with it came a violent tropical rain-storm. Even more fortunately for the Americans, Brigadier-General Persifor P Smith, a remarkably steady man, arrived to assume Command of the American forces to the West of the Pedregal. Smith was apparently not shaken by the fact that he was surrounded and had fewer than 4,000 troops with which to face the possibility of a combined attack from something between 13,000-17,000 men the next day. He summoned Lee, who had scattered the land between San Jeronimo and General Valencia’s position, and found it unguarded, and decided to ignore the large body of Mexican troops to his North, and attack General Valencia’s left-flank at first-light. It would obviously be helpful if the American troops in front of Valencia staged a strong demonstration in the morning, but Smith had no-way of communicating this to them.
