Jack,

I try and post up the new pic before I go to bed the night before...so that when our ETO/MTO friends check in Monday morning it will be there.

Missed last night due to personal issues....

The current picture was provided by Mick...hopefully he will shed some thoughts on it.

And yes where is that pic of the Screamin' Meemie.

How about one in front of 10 Downing....you have a mounted M2HB don't you?

Buy that tipper yet??????? :D

Great photo Bill thanks. I have a buddy here that has a track and we often convoy together to events here in town. Our last outing was to Randolph Air Force Base, old Betty Boop in lead, half track Green Hornet behind, 43 Dodge weapons carrier and an M38 in tail end charlie position. You should have seen the look on the security police faces as we approached the main gate, then a big smile and we were waved right on in.
