Thanks for sharing!

Perhaps the connection between wine and war might be more about the ownership and control of the land rather than wine itself?
Moyer’s presentation would most likely be very good for all areas of agriculture. Troops should try to be sensitive to the culture and needs of the local people wherever they are.
I am looking forward to finding out more about Vino della Pace.
Cheers!

I don’t know whether wine is a associated with armed conflict more than any other business competition or team sport (I haven’t researched the connections or analyzed any data statistically), although, I doubt that it is.
