    Eiffel didn’t design the Statue of Liberty.
    Bertoldi did. Eiffel created the iron substructure that supports its “skin.”

    The National Park Service ( think it’s them) has done an outstanding job preserving the Antietam battlefield. One of my sons and I visited 2 years ago and were very impressed.

    The Polio fight is one of the most interesting reads in history. From the mixed belief it was overblown and only made a big deal by FDR to the assumption that live attenuated from chimp renal cultures brought HIV to the world. Just so much in that story of vaccinating the world.

    War reporting
    A homage to the photojournalists lost to decades of war in Vietnam
    April 29 marks 50 years since the Cambodian Campaign began, while April 30 marks the 45th anniversary of the Fall of Saigon, bringing an end to the US-Vietnam War. Marking the dates we return to one of our Most Read stories of 2008, a profile on book Requiem, serving as a tribute to the 135 photojournalists from all sides of the conflict who lost their lives in battle
