In an interesting turn of events at FPC Pensacola, Cinco de Mayo was celebrated with a special lunch meal! They were short handed in the kitchen, so Michael helped out. No special Easter meal but Cinco de Mayo food! There even was a spiral ham for dinner (Michael thought this was a little strange and could have been served for Easter dinner instead of liver and onions!). Ah! The mysteries of the Federal Prison system! Hope you and yours enjoyed May 5th! Madison learned about the battle of the 4,000 Mexican soldiers against the traitor Mexican army and the French. Napoleon detested the United States and as it was embroiled in a Civil War probably thought Mexico was the stepping stone to invade the US as well. Americans were sent to help and provide munitions to Mexico and this victory kept Napoleon from providing weapons to the Confederate side. This also allowed the United States to create the greatest army the world had ever seen and 14 months later the Grand Army was victorious at Gettysburg! History unites us all! Viva! el Cinco de Mayo!
PS> Happy belated Stars Wars Day - May the 4th! May the Force (4th!) be with you!:)
