As luck would have it I chanced on a basketball game for the ages. In the March Madness, Women's Division, Kansas State was matched with Kentucky. For most of the game, which was very clean, the largest lead was five points. There were over 20 lead changes and multiple ties. At the end of regulation, a game played on Kentucky's floor, the score was tied. It struck me that both teams should have been declared winner and allowed to move on in the tournament. But, of course that's too non-competitive, so the game went into overtime. Kansas State won with the final score 80-79. That puts K.S. in the "Sweet Sixteen" for the first time since 2002.
On the golf front a Norwegian, Victor Hovland, won the Valspar Tournament today. Who knew that Norwegians played golf?, skiing yes, but golf???
Frode Jespersen would have been 102 today.

PS In answer to a query: the sailors were firing at barrels for gunnery practice. They obviously needed it.
Because there have been many random military pictures here's a change of scene. This statue of Christopher Columbus is in the Dominican Republic.
