We're not lost, Sergeant, We're in … France

One of today’s Freshly Pressed blogs also mentions the use of iPads in learning. I was especially interested at the mention of using them to help out in galleries. I found a few other WWII related blog entries as well:

• It turns out that we could avoid climate change if we just had more WWII bombers making contrails, as it turns out that high-aviation traffic areas in WWII had a temperature of 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit (0.8 degrees Celsius) cooler.
• Someone researching ghost towns wandered across Oradour-sur-Glane and found it as chilling as I did. Joanna also posted her thoughts, comparing the impact of visiting the ghost to her experience as a guide at a concentration and some powerful photos on the chilling experience of visiting Oradour-sur-Glane.
• As we all know, the internet is an amazing thing. Andrew Ronzine had blogged about his grandmother, mentioning his WWII-veteran grandfather only in passing.  The daughter of one of grandpa Ronzine’s buddies was working on making a book of his wartime journals and…. found Andrew. Now, both the daughter and the grandson know a little more about their Marines.
