A tidbit for #war / #military #historians, esp. of #WW2 Eastern Front:
Pretty good evidence of some #Soviet Red Army units lacking even rifles in 1941 can be found from Finnish intelligence reports published in Porvali, M. (2021). Kohti itää: Päämajan kaukopartio-osasto Vehniäinen 1941. Atena. -

The Hickleton Skulls.
In the Northwest lychgate of Hickleton church is an inset in the wall with the skulls of three alleged sheep rustlers.
However, the truth is a little less romantic - they were placed there in 1880 by the 2nd Viscount Halifax and are a memento mori. The skulls were given by local medical students.
There's currently a campaign running to inter the skulls and replace them with fake replicas as it is unlikely that the poor victims ever consented to this (in very much the same way as many medical skeletons have now been interred as the person's skeleton was being used without prior consent).

#Historians research, analyse, and catalogue past follies of humanity. Since the collective behaviour of humans is cyclic, the insight of the historians is a reliable predictor of humanity’s #future.
And when people do not heed the warnings of the historians, past mistakes recur, as can be observed throughout the whole world, at present.

That could block #public #access to more than 700 million White House emails, among countless other records, in Archives possession since the #law went into effect in 1978, Baron said.
…The impact of the #DOJ opinion could be felt quickly by #historians, #scholars & #journalists who regularly access presidential records & make requests for their release.

We call it Historical Archives & Records... He calls it EVIDENCE
"Historians sue over Trump's attempt to ignore Presidential Records Act
The world's largest association of historians is suing the Trump administration over a recent effort to justify the president keeping his official records rather than turning them over to the National Archives."
