The Revolutionary War Semiquincentennial continues. Today is the 250th Anniversary of The Battle Of Turtle Gut Inlet in, what is now, Wildwood Crest in New Jersey. The naval battle, the only Revolutionary War skirmish in Cape May County, took place on June 29, 1776. It was the first privateer battle of The American Revolution. Richard Wickes was The Continental Navy's only casualty on that day and the first casualty in New Jersey. The Brits to lost thirty to forty of their personnel. A trick was pulled off with success. A fuse was lit within the ship called Brigantine Nancy by the Continental Navy, and then the Americans departed the vessel. The Brits, thinking that they captured a valuable vessel and supplies, discovered the ruse too late. I used multiple maps from four different centuries to ascertain the location of Turtle Gut Inlet and, thus, the location of the battle.
Yesterday, Wildwood Crest hosted a reenactment of the naval battle with a funeral of Richard Wickes.

I am finally uploading content from the two Freedom For Iran Demonstrations in Washington, DC held on March 07, 2026 uploaded. Both were quite lively. The Donald Trump quote "Is DEAD" was turned into a song and played frequently. I wore the colors: green, white and red. Some little children took notice of my sign with the Playskool Glo Worm. One went to grab it. Hilarious. After the Free Iran demonstrations, I walked into a left-wing pro-mullah demonstration. I posted videos of both below.
Dorood doostam. I attended two Freedom For Iran demonstrations in Washington, DC yesterday, February 28, 2026. These demonstrations, one daytime and one nighttime, were different in tone and content. I woke up yesterday morning to the news of the strikes to strategic mullah regime targets carried out by the United States Of America and Israel. The past demonstrations were quite somber to me because of the lack of action at that point and the killings of unarmed protesters in Iran. The two gatherings that I attended yesterday were filled with celebration, singing and dancing due to the very good news of the strikes against the mullah regime with actual results. A very jubilant crowd was present. By the end of the evening, I was told that the ayatoilet Ali Khamenei was killed. I wore the colors: green, white and red. I purchased that jacket last December. This was my first time wearing it. What an occasion. The following video and photographs show the party atmosphere.
