I found this fascinating. At one point he mentions that there is a spoon in every photo.

I was really impressed with the work the photographer put into setting up those shots! I have never seen so much "War" gear. The web site it was on is very interesting and is now a "favorite".

Love the Saxon axe by the way. I recall a picture of two US troops in England with a Saxon axe that was living on the farm they were billeted on. It had been used to split wood since the beginning of time apparently... Strange things you sometimes find. I have a pic of my oldest son holding an executioner's axe in NB Canada that lives in Champlain's fort. Just kind of poked behind a door with a museum number on it...I have the pics somewhere here...
