Full Shaded Commission For @ask-swing-rhythm. Thanks So Much!

One item I don’t show off much in my collection, mostly due to the feelings against anything Confederate in the last year, is an unissued Southern Cross of Honor. The SCH was essentially the South’s version of the Medal of Honor (which originated in the Civil War). The SCH though was never actually awarded during the Civil War, instead the first was awarded in 1900 by the United Daughters of the Confederacy who created the award and was given to Southern veterans in recognition of loyal, honorable service to the South. I picked this one up at a flea market last summer for $7 and took it to a guy I know who said it’s worth around $250 as is. A named one will typically sell for around $300-$750 depending on who it was awarded to and what battles they participated in.

Today on Random Ass Texts from my Mom, there’s this...

Our WWII TBM Avenger torpedo bomber flying over while our Jeep fires blanks at the “bogey” from a .50 caliber. The “blanks” are a mixture of oxygen and propane being burned in rapid, short bursts to replicate how it would fire if active.

Finally decided to try out my new sketchbook I got way back at Christmas so I drew the boxing eagle mascot for a WWII fighter squadron. Turned out pretty good, even if I did have some problems with the legs...

Hey everyone. I just made a new blog for one of my other OCs and I’d really appreciate it if y’all could go follow it too. I’m going to bounce back and forth between the two but I’ll most likely be more active on the new one. Again, if you could go give it a follow it’d mean the world to me.

To My Followers

I know my blog is far from the most active and definitely not the most interesting as I don't put pictures up with answers, but I want to thank you all for sticking with my blog and not unfollowing despite my long absences. It means a lot to me that you all stick around. Thank you so so much

This is what I love about being a pilot, the beautiful views I get while flying along the river and being able to watch the sunset reflecting off the cliffs and the water.

Something else I do when I’m not writing MLP fanfics or being lazy, is train as aircrew to eventually fly our museum’s WWII B-25 bomber. As a student pilot, I’ve not gotten enough hours to train yet as copilot so for now I’m training as a flight engineer and navigator. For navigation, I sit in the most forward seat in the nose which is nicknamed “the greenhouse” because of all the windows which make it sweltering hot. But it always offers the best views.

Welcome!
