Does not look at all "stealthy" to me; lots of "flat" vertical and horizontal surfaces to reflect rather than redirect radar energy.
Tears in my eyes; a profoundly moving tribute to a fallen comrade. Thank you for showing this to us.
When I was a young lad in north-central KS, I remember my family often driving past a concrete-walled prison, just north of Hwy 81, somewhere between Belleville and Concordia KS. My parents would...
Wow!!
The situation may look better and I'm late jumping in here so I'll keep the prayers going, tardy though I am.
Thunderbox: Appreciate your responce but I seem unable to locate the postings.
On another LE forum, the 'FR' buttstock stamping has become a topic of some interest. The reason for the stamping appears to be unknown, subject to much conjecture as to its origin and its intent. ...
Aspen catkins are developing. Ice went off the lake one week ago, earliest ice-out we've ever had. I can recall ice still thick enough to walk on at fishing openers (typically Mothers' Day) for...

I can fully understand a warship 'chucking' brass; useless cargo/critical space kind of thing. I always wondered about the millions/billions of rounds of small-arms to artillery brass in...
