CSA: Battle at Newton Station – April 24th 1863! (1.7.2026)

01/07/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Although I am no fan of the right-wing (racist) actor – John Wayne – the 1959 film entitled “The Horse Soldiers” covers the so-called “Battle at Newton Station” which unfolded on April 24th, 1863 – and took place in Mississippi. This involved the penetration of the South in the Western Theatre by Col. Benjamin Grierson (1826-1911) and his Union Cavalry Unit. The idea was to commit acts of terrorism and sabotage toward the CSA and its train network – so that it could not easily transport troops and supplies around the country. As Cavalry acted as a light and highly mobile infantry – these troops often turned-out to be highly effective in this role. The clip I have added above is from the film “The Horse Soldiers” and depicts Confederate troops arriving by train at the station and launching what they thought to be a surprise attack. From what records survive, it is said that the CSA lost around 25 men – but this number could have been higher. I am told that Confederate charges like this – from trains – did take place on more than one occasion.

UK: My Grandfather’s WWII PTSD – the Cost of Our Freedom! (9.5.2026)

He trained alongside the Glider-Landed Troops – trained to sit 30 to a wooden glider (a platoon) and crash-land on a military target before deploying (if surviving). Alfred either landed on Sword Beach in the first landing-boats and fought his way (ten-miles) in-land to relieve the British Glider Troops landed in Caen – or he landed in Caen with the Glider Troops and tried to hold the area until relieved by the British Army. Either way (we are not exactly sure – but must assume the former) the German resistance was so intense the first-wave Units were decimated and many of the early objectives were not achieved. My grandfather, when talking about his experiences many years later, described how he had to kill many people as he moved through the French and German countryside. He would fight his way to Hamburg before he was granted rest and leave. It was this killing that negatively affected him psychologically. Indeed, there hundreds of thousands of men in the UK who had to re-integrate into British society and pretend nothing had happened.

Modern Russia & North Korea are Staunch Allies!

Russia: Korean People’s Army [as of 2024-2025 – 10 Months] Lost 101 Casualties in Kursk! (26.1.2026)

It is worth mentioning that the DPRK and Russia officially signed the DPRK-Russia Treaty on Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in 2024.

The treaty stipulates that when one of the two sides is at war due to armed aggression by an individual country or multiple countries, the other side shall immediately mobilize all means at its disposal to provide military and other assistance in accordance with Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations and the laws of North Korea and Russia.

Based on this clause, North Korean forces were strictly limited to Russia Kursk Oblast to perform tasks within the territory, to avoid direct involvement in the Ukrainian mainland operation in Donbass.

Confederate Infantry [1861-1865] penned by the British experts Ian Drury & Gerry Embleton (1993)

CSA: Book Review – “Confederate Infantryman [1861-1865]” By Ian Drury & Gerry Embleton! (16.11.2025)

17/11/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Osprey Publishing is a British Publishing Company specializing in military history originally based in Oxford. Being English myself – and having been born in Oxford – I appreciate a clear-thinking and non-bias account of historical matters. The book above – Confederate Infantry [1861-1865] penned by the British experts Ian Drury & Gerry Embleton (1993) – is an extraordinary introduction to the subject of the Confederate Army in general – and the Confederate infantryman in-particular. An estimation of the Confederate causalities sustained during four-years of fighting (1861-1865) is as follows:

Confederate Casualties = 483,026

Killed in Action (KIA) = 94,000

Wounded in Action (WIA) = 194,026

Died of Diseases = 164,000

Died as Prisoners of War (POWs) = 31,000

China: Authentic Footage – PLA Great Victory March! (5.9.2025)

The PLA also liberated Hainan in 1950 (during April-May) – a sizable island off the coast of South China. After mere months in power, the CPC (via the dedicated might of the PLA) also took on (and defeated) the capitalist West when it invaded North Korea between (1950-1953). Without the development of the PLA by Mao Zedong – there would have been no Socialist Revolution in China. Ordinary Chinese men and women – who have studied the work of Mao Zedong – constitute the “Iron Wall” that is the PLA! Even President Trump stood-up and saluted whilst watching the March on a large TV screen erected in the Oval Office of the White House!

Nigeria: White Woman Speaks Pidgin to Nigerian Women! (20.7.2025)

20/07/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

I keep an eye on ethnic African Telegram Channels – particularly those from Nigeria. I am observing the gang warfare that exists (termed “cult membership”) – which focuses on the “Vikings” (there is an idea that Vikings once landed in Africa and mixed-in with the local people) and the “Black Axes” – the latter of which brutally kill other people with hand-axes. There are other groups that routinely fight one another for dominance and control of resources, etc. These gangs are tribal and tend to reject Christianity as being a foreign religion imposed by outsiders. However, Nigerian culture in general is rather relaxed, sedate, and nourishing to encounter despite the issues that exist within broader society. This is just the same as every other culture on Earth. The young woman above was featured on one of these Channels as being an extraordinary example of a White person speaking fluent Nigerian Pidgin!
