I have the Soviet model that’s late WWII; never shot it and my shoulder thanks me every day!

Dale. We keep treading the same trails. Wish I could have helped you with "Enemy At The Gates." I'd have looked good with an Iron Cross. Shaub sends

Nicely told, Captain Dye. These are the kinds of stories I'd like to sit and hear in person, but I'll take this instead, and like it Semper Fi.

That’s a very good read sir. My uncle was a Marine who was in the Vietnam war. I had another uncle who was a Marine in Korea. My Father was in the Air Force and stationed in Thailand towards the end of the Vietnam war. Men who have served this country in military service I have a lot of respect for. Thank you sir.

Cool story, I never brought home any war trophies, was just glad to get home! I now regret that!
