And after 50+ years of traveling, I may be home this fall. I might like to give translating General Journee's book a go. I think I'd go for the original version though. I think it's on line. Stay tuned.
Argo, a fried of mine was on the adjunct faculty down at Leavenworth, Command and General Staff College. The French liaison officer was looking for someone to translate an interesting French piece from the 18th century: "The Will of the Marshal de Belle Isle". Basically advice from a French nobleman to his son, who was inheriting the regiment he commanded. I enjoyed doing that one, and the French liaison officer liked it. He then asked if I'd be interested in translating a French field manual. I took a pass on that one.
Journee is interesting . . . but very long and very technical.
