ONCHIOTA - David Fitz-Enz, a retired Army colonel and active military
historian, doesn't see the same things most of us do when he drives to
Plattsburgh, or Ogdensburg, or Sacketts Harbor.

We tend to see the northern New York landscape only in its present
state, maybe overlaid with memories of how it was earlier in our
lifetimes. Fitz-Enz, who lives in Onchiota with his wife of 50-plus
years, Carol, sees it as it was two centuries ago - as a battleground.
