    my father no longer listened to iron maiden, he preferred Protestant Christian praises, but he still really liked it, whenever I played it while studying, he always told the same story about Alexander the Great and his instrumental introduction... I never interrupted him, I always liked seeing this happy and relaxed side of him... it's been 7 months since he left for a better place... we miss him a lot 😔
    a month after he left, my son was born.
    It was a mix of feelings, a joy in the midst of loss.
    The funny thing is that, a couple of weeks ago, I was playing with him in the living room, on his mat, as usual, and we always played music nearby; and when he was a little restless, I put on the Virtual XI album and immediately, he calmed down and started to calm down... at least for a while, you know how babies are 😅
    I can't wait to tell the wonderful stories about his grandfather, and perform the songs we loved

      Not to mention it was a order to attack full on with the Light Brigade mistakenly. Their orders were to flank the valley, or to at least approach the guns from an advantageous position and NOT just pell mell down the throats of the Russian guns. And as per military tradition, the officer in charge mistook the orders, and the new mistaken set of directions was not made at fault. He IMMEDIATELY started covering his arse and blamed his next in command. Then had to try and defend himself in FRONT of the leading officer corp that was watching the events of horror happen below them in the valley, from their hilltop position.
      An older commander basically misheard orders, and instead of reinterpreting them to the right series of actions that wouldn't waste all his men and horse. Became both ignorant AND stubborn. At least officially that man wasn't disciplined though his adjutant, second was.
      [I'm pulling this out of my rear after a long day so I may have missed a fact, or am slightly off on it but I can attest that this is correct.]
