It's cold outside, but warm #InTheLibrary. An economics class is visiting later to learn about the Marshall Plan -- what better place than at the #MarshallFoundationLibrary?
Lead article in this quarter's Army History magazine is by Dr. M. Ashley Vance, whom I met as a researcher #InTheLibrary; who has spoken at the #MarshallFoundationLibrary; and who now is helping the effort to digitize the George C. Marshall Papers.
So glad to call her a friend.
On our first cold morning at the #MarshallFoundationLibrary, my favorite #MarshallWisdom temper moment:
"Get these blankets and stoves and every other damn thing that's needed out tonight, not tomorrow morning, and not two weeks from now.
I don't care what regulations are upset or anything of that character. We are going to take care of the troops first, last, and all the time."
On discovering that soldiers were enduring winter training without blankets, which had been ordered but not delivered.
No photos, please. I need brushing but won't let mom do it.
Furry dog love is so important now.

I'm a librarian.
Real science. Real facts. Real information.
