CFHS AP US History

So,
I never knew that the camps were so huge. I guess I never stopped and thought about it. I also found it amazing that there are still the actual depressions in the ground from the camps. That is just really neat. And I found the comparison of Stafford to a big scab quite humorous.
It's true that you never really see too many of the winter camps anymore but maybe with the rebirth of this one, we'll see more being ressurrected. At least I hope so. I like the camps ever so much more than the battlefields. They're much more interesting.
Well,
I guess that's it.

P.S. It's also great to see a developer helping with this project instead of tearing down trees and putting in massive subdivisions.
P.P.S. I wasn't sure where to put this and then I saw people just commenting on Mr. G's thing.
Were we supposed to just comment and not actually post?
I'm just gonna leave this here and cross my fingers I got it right this time and did what I was supposed to do. Am I the only one who screws this us EVERY single time I try and post something?

Me

Hey you're not the only one to screw up on this! I'm wiht you a hundred percent. I guess I can never get the hang of anything else other than commenting. Good work though and keep it up. It was interesting wasn't it!

I thought it was interesting too that there were still depressions in the ground from the huts. Wow.. and it was a long time ago. I think that the preservation of this winter camp will hopefully influence other builders to realize that history is being destroyed because of housing and such. This camp can hopefully teach our generation and others that follow much more about the history of Stafford.
