Wife and I run the Eisenhower 5k race every year and spend the day shopping and hanging around the town. Visited the Library and the original house Ike and his family lived in. Small town USA. Nice little place for a weekend get away.
Last time I was there I picked up the book "Carlisle vs. Army" by Lars Anderson.
Great read! I think you would like it.

Incredible book and really the meat behind what I wrote above. Thank you for the recommendation. I continue to be impressed with his drive and tenacity. A true warrior scholar.
