    When I worked in Arlington, VA, I had an employee who had been a Pentagon tour guide. He told us a story about how one day he was heading towards the personnel office on his own business. Suddenly, he looked up and didn't know where he was in the building. Nothing looked familiar. So he turned backwards, walked a few steps and then he knew exactly where he was and was able to continue on to where he was going. He just wasn't used to seeing things facing forward!

      Ha what a neat story I guess walking backwards does give a different perspective.. I'm from NZ biggest building I've been on a tour group with was the beehive in Wellington, that building is amazing.. it sits on weight stabilizers as like anti earthquake measures.

    The Roman soldiers dress code on the battle field is the correct battle field dress code for every soldier I care about. Chess armor, back armor, hard hat that covers the back of the neck & shield that blocks swords & bullets yet light weight & easily manuverable. The Germans during war war II were smart enough to use hard hats first, even though it didn't cover the back of the neck, it gave them an advantage untill the alliance caught on.
