    An Overview of Buchenwald Concentration Camp

    Jews and political prisoners were not the only Buchenwald prisoners, although the “politicals,” given their long-term presence at the site, helped with the structure of the prisoner system.

Buchenwald was one of the only concentration camps that held “work-shy” individuals, people who the regime identified as not being able too, or wouldn’t, find work. In the later in the…

    Lexington and Concord

    The Battles of Lexington and Concord was a part of the American Revolution. It played a big role in the revolution because the battles marked an outbreak of open armed conflict between the kingdom of Great Britain and the mainland of British North America. The Battles of Lexington and Concord were the first military engagement of the American Revolutionary War. They were fought on April 19, 1775, in Middlesex county, province of Massachusetts Bay. The British Army’s lieutenant colonel Francis Smith ordered about 700 British army regulars to capture and destroy military supplies that were reportedly stored by the Massachusetts militia at Concord. Dr. joseph Warren alerted the colonist of what the British were going to try to do and so the Patriots had enough time to move most of their ammunition to safety. The first shots were fired just as the sun was rising in Lexington, and the colonists then knew that they were outnumbered so they fell back. Hours later the colonists fought and defeated three of the kings companies at the North Bridge in Concord. More Minutemen arrived soon thereafter and inflicted heavy damage on the British troops as they marched back toward Boston. The British failed to keep the secrecy and speed required to conduct a successful strike into hostile territory, yet they did destroy some weapons and supplies. The numbers of the men who served in the battles of Lexington and Concord were unknown for the Americans. The Americans did not exceed the losses of 90 men. The British had about 1800 men and they lost 19 officers and 250 soldiers were killed and wounded. The British army was called many nicknames such as “lobster backs” and “devils” by the colonists, but the most used nickname was “Redcoats”. The British Army’s had occupied Boston since 1768 and had been augmented by naval forces and marines to enforce the Intolerable Acts. The struggle for supplies led to one British success and then to several…

    Empire State Building

    New York City's soaring skyline wouldn't be the same without the Empire State Building. Reaching 1,250 feet, it hold the title of the seventh tallest building in the world. It remained the worlds tallest building for 41 years until the World Trade Center topped it off and seven followed. Built during the depression in 1930 and 1931, it cost a whopping 41 million dollars. The engineer who took on this giant project was H.G. Balcom. The design of the building changed 16 times during planning, but the 3,000 workers managed to pull it off in record timing, 1 year and 45 days, including holidays and Sundays. This skyscraper is made of 60,000 tons of steel, 200,000 cubic feet of Indiana limestone and granite, 10 million bricks, and 730 tons of aluminum and stainless steel. The Empire State Building contains 3,194,547 light bulbs, 50 miles of radiator pipe, 70 miles of water pipe, 1,060 miles of telephone cable, and 7,450 tons of refrigeration equipment. In 1945, a B-25 Bomber on its way to Newark Airport in New Jersey crashed into the 79th floor only causing minor damage luckily. One hundred tons of trash are removed from the building each month. A small known fact is that the building is designed to serve as a lighting rod for the surrounding area. It is struck about 100 times per year. There are 1,575 stairs to the top floor, the 86th, and Paul Crake holds the record of 10 minutes and 15 seconds to reach the 86th floor. The Empire State Building was one of the best crafted skyscrapers ever built and will always mount above the New York…
