The Civil War
I'm somthing of a Civil War buff, the Spanish Civil War, that is. There should be Spanish Civil War reenacters: the Republicans could pretend to dig up the graves of nuns and dance with their corpses, while the Nationalists could reenact the making of the Blessed Virgin Mary a general, an act that prompted Hitler to vow never to visit Spain.
The Beeb has an article, however grossly biased in favor of the Republicans, about the Irish volunteers on both sides of that conflict: Spanish Civil War veterans look back.

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
