Who would have time for a specialty of military history in high school? I took it as an elective in college and the teacher spent the entire time teaching us how to play the Battle of Waterloo as a war game, complete with his fabulous collection of toy soldiers. You can imagine how useful that was to my life.

Why does my post (see above) have a link on it (the word "start") that I didn't put there? It's an ad! Believe me, I know nothing about that.
