What a great summary! I will be able to refer to it often, rather than going through many posts from January to August to refresh my memory on various topics from this time period.

This recap is magnificent! It’s art in its own right. So is the work itself. I’ve loved learning from and alongside you and watch this all unravel over time. So much more fun to be part of the process (from the outside) than just have you recap everything in clean conclusions.

Not a specific topic or direction, but I can’t wait to see the recurring themes and inter-decade connections as you move on to the post-war part of his life. Opapa was always so grounded in principle, and so much of his early years comes back (or never left) in his later years, so I’m excited to see you pull those thematic threads.

Also I’m obviously excited about the media part :)

This overview is amazing--I love the way you have gotten deep into the details and now review it all from the point of view of a distant satellite. As for questions I have -- well, you ask such good questions that I’ll be happy to follow your train of thought.
