billet



In America, there is still one Constitutional Law not destroyed in forbidding the housing of soldiers in people's homes, which was of reality in populace Europe as it was how troops were fed and sheltered, as there was no room for them any place else.

The Americans hated the British for housing them, feeding them and the rape of creatures which took place.

I came across this amusing story from Lt. Col. Ted Roosevelt while in France in World War I.


"In another town an excellent billet was not used by the officers because over the bed were hung photographs of all the various persons who had died in the house, taken while they lay dead in that bed."

Theodore Roosevelt. Average Americans


Perhaps that is the last grace of the American Constitution in people having troops foisted upon them by the regime can hang pictures of dead people above the bed, and tell the troops that 500 people have died in that bed.

I doubt it would work with gun confiscation nor worship of God.
