winterToday's Mary-of-the-Herbs, but also the Polish Army Day, so there was a grand parade and ceremony, with the President and all that jazz. And a drill demonstration among other things. While the soldiers drilled, which always reminds me of Broadway-style dancing, the marching band played a medley of soldierly songs. First Brigade to Poppies of Monte Cassino to Warsaw Song to- Wait a minute.
The Imperial March. By the Polish Army marching band. During a national fete, on national television.
^_^
In other news, yes, I'm back. My mail program's on the fritz, so mail-answering might be short. And tomorrow I need to go back to work :/

Of course, Charles then tried to force Klaus Flemming, governor of Finland, to submit to his authority. Flemming wasn't too keen on the idea of committing treason and that caused this huge civil war thingy.
