The article from The Armory Life, written by Will Dabbs, MD, explores the historical significance and enduring legacy of the M2 .50-caliber machine gun, commonly known as "Ma Deuce." Originating in World War I, the gun was developed at the behest of American General John J. Pershing to counter German observation balloons and aircraft. Designed by John Moses Browning, with ammunition developed by Winchester, the M2 has been in service since 1921 and remains a staple in military arsenals worldwide. The weapon is praised for its robustness, versatility, and reliability, capable of being mounted on various platforms, including vehicles, ships, and aircraft. Though more than a century old, advancements like the M2A1 model have upgraded its features, ensuring the Browning-designed machine gun continues to be an integral part of military operations today.

Jaune arc but he has the Is knowledge a memory of john m browning You know the man who made the machine gun that's been in the service of the US military for ninety years and the 1911 Is and the trinch gun. This is the request for a fanfic
"It's over..." Ruby heaved a heavy sigh of relief as the Grimm began to fade from existence. "It's finally over. We did it, Jaune!"
The young man by her side said nothing. Instead, he simply stared out at the vast expanse of space between them and the horizon. Everything that he strove so hard for, to become a hero, had finally come true. Of course it would be a lot to take in all at once.
"Ja-"
"He's gone, Miss Rose." Ruby turned to find Ozpin speaking with Oscar's voice. "It seems I was not the only immortal spirit on this journey."
"What?" Ruby whirled around to Jaune, who looked at his sword and shield in confusion. "Jaune?"
"Nope." Jaune shook his head. "John now." He hand Crocea Mors to Ozpin, then nodded as he passed. "See ya, Oz."
"What... What was that?!" Ruby took hold of Oscar's straps, tears pouring from her eyes. "Where's Jaune?!"
"I'm afraid he's... gone the way of Mr. Pine." A hard fist struck his jaw.
"WHAT ELSE AREN'T YOU TELLING US?! WHO WAS THAT?! WHERE'S JAUNE?!"
"...He's gone, Ruby." He rubbed his cheek and looked to the blond haired stranger walking away. "All that's left is Mr. John Browning."
"Who?!"
"I've met him many years ago." Ozpin dusted himself off as he stood. "He was a brilliant young man, hardworking, and some would call him the father of modern firearms." He looked to the stranger now climbing down the hill, passing the high fives offered by his former friends. "And it seems his work is still not done."

【Antebellum/AMV】Psycho Killer
Happy Independence Day guys!! Hope you all enjoy this!
Like I've said the theme of this amv is probably: humorously(?) compressed simple antebellum history (1812-1861) group portraits into 4 minutes. So most scenes are basically related to historical facts, and the numbers there are the years of the events. However I'm historically illiterate in antebellum era, and this was something I decided to make before I even understood antebellum people lol. I hope there aren't any big mistakes x
While playing this song on repeat it suddenly struck me that everyone in the antebellum era was a god damned Psycho Killer, hence the idea for this group portrait. It's kinda sad that some of the characters I didn't get a chance to draw or that I didn't know enough about them.
If you like this, please tell me your favourite scene and feel free to share any thoughts!!! I want comments so badly😭😭😭I will probably make an explanation of timeline later!!!

Old Stone House, Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania
Over the weekend, we passed the Old Stone House in Slippery Rock several times that we made plans to stop by the house on our way back to Ohio.  The home, a two-story, six-bay structure made of sandstone was built by John Brown in 1822 and is today, a museum of rural life. Perfectly situated at the crossroads of the Pittsburgh-Franklin and Butler Mercer Pikes, it was the perfect location as a…
