Thank you, thank you for this honor!

I would like to thank Level for always being an annoying little s---. Without him, I would have never decided to annoy this blog further and get you to 100 reblogs.

Peace out, brother, and may the final fronties be with you! XD

Silver brewing insults at Poke, while he tries to enjoy his morning brew.

Did this little sketch after @askpokeeosin mod said that he felt attacked by this parody song I sent him.

Historic scenes as soldiers from No. 7 Company Coldstream Guards joined the Garde Républicaine, outside the Élysée Palace in Paris whilst the 1st & 2nd Infantry Regiments of the Garde Républicaine were marched to Buckingham Palace by the Band of the Grenadier Guards, marking the first time a military unit from outside the Commonwealth has mounted guard at Buckingham Palace. The events were to mark 120 years since the signing of the Anglo-French alliance known as the Entente Cordial.

On this day, Bataan fell. Filipino and American forces in the peninsula, after relentless attacks, surrender to the Japanese.

In commemoration of the brave actions of the men who fought in the Bataan, the Philippines marks the day as Araw ng Kagitingan (Day of Valor).

Trimontium Roman Fort

A departure from the Early Modern period to do a thread about the Roman fort of Trimontium in what is now the Scottish borders. I visited the museum at the weekend, and it was great! 1/14

Trimontium, now called Newstead, was first built about around 80 AD, during the Roman General Agricola’s invasion of Caledonia. It stood for over a century in an area known as Trimontium – between three hills.

The land had been occupied by native tribes since at least the Iron Age, with multiple settlements existing on the slopes surrounding the fort.

It served as a military base in Caledonia, and seems to have primarily been a cavalry depot for long periods – there are lots of horse remains, as well as these helmets and ceremonial faceplates belonging to Roman cavalrymen.

The XX Legion spent time there (as did the VIII, earlier on), as evidenced by the remains of this plaque.

A Roman soldier’s service record!

The fort’s strategic function shifted over time –it was a bulwark existing beyond Hadrian’s Wall, then after the construction of the Antonine Wall further north it became more of a logistical hub, then resumed being a frontier fort after the Antonine Wall’s abandonment.

Small settlements sprung up around the fort’s walls, and it is likely there were regular peaceful contact with the surrounding tribes. However there is also evidence of conflict. Roman forts came under sustained attack across several periods, and it looks as though when the fort was finally abandoned, it was done so in a hurry.

As per soldiers from the Ancient World to modern-day Iraq and Afghanistan, when the troops move out they leave a lot behind – lucky for the archaeologists and historians.

I am amused by how miserable Roman soldiers must have been after getting assigned to northern Britain. The ends of the earth indeed! I also do scoff at the whole “I think about Rome every day” meme, but I can see the allure, and I find it extremely interesting comparing and contrasting what I know about 18th c. militaries with the Roman Army. There were definitely a fair few things that I think the Romans were better at, especially when it comes to organisation, logistics and efficiencies!

They did it! The mad lads at SpaceX did it! They launched a 15-story spaceship into a quasi-orbit above Earth! IFT-3 was crazy and I loved every second of it.

Anyways, here's some art I did while waiting for the launch.
