RE:<<That is similar to the term "all nine yards", or "the whole nine yards" story, in the respect that they are both the result of combat.>>
And, given the situation we're all in, don't forget combat resulted term DECIMATED.... Unfortunately, that just meant losing 10 of every 100 soldiers. What do they call it when you lose all 100?!? Ah, back to the term PLUCKED!!!

JH,

Thanks for posting the source. I received it in an email on the internet and didn't know what the source was, or if it was at all factual. I'd love to see that TV show, it would be quite interesting.

>>The show was actually pretty fascinating. I was surprised by a great many of this man's long/well-researched findings...<<
