I am a huge military history buff from Washington, DC. I am especially fluent in Canadian History in Upper Canada between 1839-1879. I had the opportunity to monitor (as a spectator) the Virginia National Guard conduct an exercise in the forest (for two whole days!), which gave me a great idea of what military life is actually like. Their food, or "hard rats" as we called them, made me appreciate home cooking.

Although I am not a published historian yet, I am currently writing two books that I hope get picked up by publishers. Of the two books, I am personally pleased with the work I have put into "The Ontario Regiment", a little known militia unit in South-Eastern Ontario, in Canada.

I am planning a trip up to Ontario shortly and will be stopping by their HQ in Oshawa. I am interested in seeing their museams and guns. I understand that they are one of the few militia units that allow civilians into their base of operations.

If you are interested in contacting me for information or hiring an historian, my e-mail is (John-Kendrick@live.com).
