Today is "Patriots Day"

Knowledge is power, if you know it about the right person!!

In his autobiography, "Days of Our Years," M. Pierre van Paassen tells of an Italian officer who, at a luncheon at the opening of the Italian Pavilion at the Paris Exhibition, started to tell of Fascist successes.
"Our Duce," he said, "ordered us to take Ethiopia, and we took it in the face of fifty-one nations determined to destroy us. He told us to take the Iron Ring around Bilbao; the next morning it was ours. "We have eight million bayonets---nothing can stop us. Let us be frank about it: if the Duce ordered his army to march into France tomorrow, what really could stop us?" There was an embarrassed silence. A French guest broke in. "Monsieur seems to forget the French Customs service," he remarked.
