  1. U.S. Army History -- 4Th
    In the short span of twelve years the 4th Cavalry Regiment had been redesignated five times and all that was left of one of the U.S. Army's finest regiments was its regimental numeral on an armor group headquarters company. With the decision to ... do away with most tactical regiments the Army realized it must preserve the valuable honors, traditions and history of famous regiments. In 1957 the Army set up the Combat Arms Regimental System (CARS). Under CARS the regiment would be a group of tactical units bearing the regimental name. Over one hundred and fifty historic regiments of cavalry, armor, infantry and artillery were preserved. The original line companies/batteries/troops of a regiment would be activated as the headquarters company/battery/troop of newly constituted battle group/battalion /squadron to preserve the lineal ties with the old regiment.

  3. July -- Americans
    SAN DIEGO, July 25 /PRNewswire/ -- William Stothers spends most days fighting to ensure that his fellow members of the disability community are able to live independent lives. As deputy director of Center for an Accessible Society, the national organization designed to focus public attention on disability issues, Stothers is an expert on the many issues facing people with disabilities today. But when he broke his leg a few weeks ago he found himself in a situation that is all-too-typical for people with disabilities. Because he was not able to use his electric wheelchair or maintain his routine with a cast on his leg, Stothers needed a few hours of care a day at home. Despite the fact that he has private insurance, he was unable to receive personal assistance services in his home, and Stothers was forced to enter a skilled nursing facility. Stothers will still be in the nursing facility on July 26, the 11th anniversary of the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

  6. Born on the Fourth of July
    Insightful and unapologetic, Born on the Fourth of July sears into your soul just as Stone’s previous films Platoon and Salvador did a few years earlier. Like Platoon, it accurately portrays the horror and confusion of war. It shows veterans hospitals in a way you’ll never see in any public service announcement for the VA. And, in Kovic’s scene with fellow former soldier Timmy Burns (Frank Whaley), it drives home the point that the only ones you can ever talk to about life during wartime are those who were ... on the front lines.
