About
Like many academics, I have many research interests, but I can usually only focus on military relief efforts for Hurricane Katrina and the American Civil War, primarily railroads, railroad batteries and armored trains. My languages include Russian, German, and Swedish, among others. Since getting my PhD from UNL in 1995, I've been on active duty with the USAR often, serving as a historian at Joint and Army commands.
