Guess where they'll be in six months :(

Across the pond somewhere around the 38th parallel??? :(

It kills me seeing all these photos of soldiers with just helmet liners being worn. Most in these shots have the whole shebang on but the radioman doesn't. Is he using a compass???

No arguement about bayonet lugs and thirty rounders in this pic.

Bill,
Looks like the radio handset to me.

Ah, sure is the hand set. ;)

IS that a PRC 10 set? I'm Canadian and I never saw those sets. I saw the 106, 25,77,125,46...but not that one.

I don't believe it is a PRC 10. this one looks like it has some kind of switch cover. And, I think the PRC 10 is narrower than this on pictured.
