With The Colors

Spirit of Washington Look down

Upon this ancient German town

And see the flag you loved fly free

Upon the spire of Monarchy.

Where Porta Nigra’s olden gate

Still stands in sombre ruinous state,

The officers of the U.S.A.

Go briskly to and fro each day.

And soldiers, thousands of them, walk

These ancient streets and try to talk

The German language with a “Oui”,

—Exponents of Democracy.

So far from home. Great Spirit guide

Our every step, that we with pride

May go back soon with laurels won,

And hear our loved ones say “Well Done”.

-U.S. Army

16 Vintage Images of America’s First Fun Car – The Model ‘A’ Ford

These wonderful images come from a poster made in 1968 and depict the styles of this vehicle since its inception.  The evolution of the Model ‘A’ Ford is remarkable and these artistic renditions of this evolution are even more so.  What I like most about these images is the lifestyle that they portray and at the bottom of every picture is how much these vehicles cost! These days, it doesn’t seem like a lot of money but back then, having one of these was a real sign of success. Take a look:
