Looking Toward Portugal . . . .: Into the Realm of History - The Liberation of the Gusen Concentration Camp, May 5, 1945
http://lookingtowardportugal.blogspot.com/2015/05/into-realm-of-history-liberation-of.html
Tuesday, May 5, 2015. Into the Realm of History - The Liberation of the Gusen Concentration Camp, May 5, 1945. Flags of the US Army Divisions of Liberation. Today is the 70th anniversary of the liberation of the Gusen concentration camp. Only a fast dwindling number of survivors and liberators are still alive to tell the story. Soon it will be cast fully into the realm of history. Keep all of our veterans in your thoughts and prayers today. We cannot imagine the price they have paid to keep us free.

Wednesday, June 24, 2015. A Special Kind of Soldier - New Dispatches from Maine. L'audace, l'audace, toujours l'audace! 8211; General George S. Patton quoting Frederick the Great.

Looking Toward Portugal . . . .: Red Flannel Hash - New Dispatches from Maine
http://lookingtowardportugal.blogspot.com/2015/06/red-flannel-hash.html
Friday, June 19, 2015. Red Flannel Hash - New Dispatches from Maine. A good hash can make one forget his or her woes. That must be it. These make for entertaining tales, but the origins of Red Flannel Hash is, I am sorry to say, far more pedestrian. Apparently The New York Times. Or were you simply fishing for the real recipe to replace the parody you gave? The mysteries of life. Check out the "Looking Toward Portugal" Facebook page for more information and photos.

Looking Toward Portugal . . . .: Subaru War Horse - New Dispatches from Maine
http://lookingtowardportugal.blogspot.com/2015/06/subaru-war-horse-new-dispatches-from.html
Sunday, June 21, 2015. Subaru War Horse - New Dispatches from Maine. Whoever you are come travel with me! Traveling with me you find what never tires. 8211; Walt Whitman, “Song of the Open Road”. Our 2005 Subaru Legacy wagon crossed the 200,000 mile threshold yesterday morning on my way home from the post office, the most miles we have ever put on a car. That averages out to 20,000 mile a year and I can believe it. That is over two-thirds the distance from the earth to the moon! Portrait by Bob M. Di...

Looking Toward Portugal . . . .: Not With a Bang But a Whimper - The Fall of Saigon Forty Years Later
http://lookingtowardportugal.blogspot.com/2015/05/not-with-bang-but-whimper-fall-of.html
Friday, May 1, 2015. Not With a Bang But a Whimper - The Fall of Saigon Forty Years Later. American combat troops had quit the country in 1973 following the signing of the Paris Peace Accords with the North Vietnamese regime in Hanoi. The South Vietnamese government was left to fend for itself against continued attacks by Viêt Công insurgents. But there was hope; the South Vietnamese were beginning to turn the tide of the war. But everything changed in the spring of 1975. By late afternoon on April 29, t...

Monday, June 8, 2015. Photo by Dave Benton. Yes, it is that time of year again. Time to pack up, load up, and head up the familiar highways to Sabbathday Lake, in New Gloucester, Maine.

Looking Toward Portugal . . . .: The Italian Sandwich - New Dispatches from Maine
http://lookingtowardportugal.blogspot.com/2015/06/the-italian-sandwich-new-dispatches.html
Wednesday, June 17, 2015. The Italian Sandwich - New Dispatches from Maine. I have previously written lovingly of the “Cubano,” the popular Cuban sandwich which I always associate with visits to Florida, although it is beginning to show up on menus all over the USA. So I think it is time to turn my attention to another favorite sandwich that has its origins right here in Maine.

Thursday, May 7, 2015. The Death of the Lusitania - May 7, 1915. Track of the Lusitania - William Lionel Wyllie. May 7, 1915 was a beautiful, warm spring day along the southern coast of Ireland. The skies were clear and blue. The seas were calm. Standing on Old Kinsale Head, near Cork, one could observe a large passenger liner sailing eastward along the horizon. Nearly 800 feet long and crowned with four large funnels, the British liner Lusitania. History returned to this old church in 1915 after bodies ...
