Where is tomorrow?
次の模型製作のテーマが決まらない。ちょっと製作のペースが速かったのかも。Bravo6の“Follow me, Tet ‘68”と“Fallen comrade, Tet ’68”。
I can’t decide on my next modeling theme. Maybe I was working a little too fast. Bravo6’s “Follow me, Tet ’68” and “Fallen comrade, Tet ’68”.

David Halberstamの「THE BEST AND THE BRIGHTEST」読了。結局、ガザやウクライナも同じかな。1968年のテト攻勢はすべての局面の転機。
I finished reading “The Best and the Brightest” by David Halberstam. I guess it’s the same for Gaza and Ukraine. The Tet Offensive of 1968 was a turning point for everything.
“And then I realized. They were stronger than me because they could stand it. They were not monsters. These were men trained cadres. These men who fought with their hearts who have families, who have children who are filled with love that they had the strength to do that. If I hasten divisions of those men then our troubles here would be very quickly. You have to have men who are moral and at the same time who are able to utilize their primordial instincts to kill without feeling, without passion without judgement. Because it’s judgement that defeats us.”(Apocalypse Now)
出張準備で忙しい。それでも仕事があるだけいい、ということか。もうすぐ彼岸。だいぶ日が短くなった。
I’m busy preparing for a business trip to Taiwan. Still, it’s good to have work. The equinox is coming soon. The days have gotten much shorter.
