This week #InTheLibrary, collections are returning from scanning, and leaving to be scanned.
The rest of the Marshall photo collection, was digitized thanks in part to the Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation. I'm excited to have it "home!"
The James A. Van Fleet collection is leaving to be scanned, paid for by the Van Fleet Foundation. Thanks to BackStage Library Works for being our partner in these efforts and to Ian for doing the heavy lifting.

Egg day.

After 40 years, I finally had to get a new waffle maker.
It's what's for breakfast.

Sunset at my library.

It's cleared off after 2 days of much-needed rain and I can see the almost-full moon.

#MarshallWisdom
"Remember this: the truly great leader overcomes all difficulties ... The lack of equipment, the lack of food, the lack of this or that are only excuses; the real leader displays this quality in his triumphs over adversity, however great it may be."
Gen. George C. Marshall, Army Chief of Staff, to the first graduating class of the Army Officer Candidate School September 27, 1941

Remember the movie Twelve O'Clock High with Gregory Peck?
Frank McCarthy remembers it, too, from his early days in Hollywood. I didn't realize part had been filmed at Eglin.

This morning

#InTheLibrary
This week, I hosted 330 First Class (senior) VMI cadets in the #MarshallFoundationLibrary, to learn a bit about Gen. George C. Marshall's examples of leadership.
It was a wonderful, if exhausting day!
