Small shout out to Martin Rohmann

[grasshopper]

His daily history hits are something I look forward to each morning..coffee and a bit of history..I read before starting the painful endurance contest that the daily news has become so I can start from something pleasant.
I can only imagine the grunt labour associated with these..and unlike the social media content creators he isn’t monetizing the effort. The pieces are inevitably interesting, sometimes really engaging, and are special by following the day by day unfolding of historical events without being set as European, American, whatever..it brings out that thread of heroism, hubris, sometimes stupidity which is what conflict is about ..I may critique some because the daily dose can’t hope to provide sufficient background, analysis..but that’s besides the point. My time is never wasted..often I dig deeper after reading, or maybe I am reminded of things I know already..whatever: it’s cool stuff, and hard work on his part..
so, without saying one piece resonates over other..well Warsaw did!...thank sir!
