| "Corps" is both a singular and a plural. It derives from the Latin "corpus, -oris" which means body. As you correctly point out, it is properly used with the "s" present. Otherwise it may mean a corporation. It not only looks like "corpse" but both words derive from the same Latin root. |

Gentlemen:
I have heard talk of destroying bridges in the campaign games, specifically Campaign Gettysburg. Would someone provide me with a primer on how this is done. My thanks.

Thanks, Doug!!!
I cut my teeth on Bruce Catton back in the 50's and haven't stopped since. There are few to come close to him, although Shelby Foote did. His works are great reads for anyone, particularly those of us interested in the Civil War. |

Hi Bill,
When I was last at the Academy (Plebe year 1960) there was a good Visitors' Center. I only got to see it upon entry. I only hope it has continued and, perhaps, continually upgraded. |
