Pray for Israel. Pray for America.
Thought it was just me.
Beautiful, a little time and lots of creativity.
I share that sentiment. There are some real treasures of out-of-print books with no equivalent on the internet for research purposes.
I anticipated that comment.
I had been thinking about wiling my book collection to my local library until a friend mentioned where he got most of the books, I buy from him. Opened one by James...
One of my all-time favorites.
Should have been easy. I met him once. Obvious after I cheated.
Looks like Lee Marvin?
Where is that and why has no one torn it down or at least defaced it? (Sarcasm off)
Are the colors correct for the service? Read somewhere USMC did not use green,
Perhaps is would be wise to ask someone else? Don't want you in the dog house.
Bonus recent finds. M15 French and a Bobby helmet. The M15 cleaned up well and actually has some blue hue but it does not show well in the photo. Had the device for the Bobby helmet for some time and...

Woodsman's pal still has replacement leather disks.
I have a couple (one pristine). Looks to be a useful tool.
Nice grouping I think you one upped me on the accessories at least. Is that an SOG beret? What model Woodsman's pal is that? Unusual handle.
My attempt at an XM177E2. Pined and welted extension and yes, I have installed the proper grip after finding a good one. Grenade is inert.
First thing I noticed. Smiles, lots of smiles. I cannot imagine how rewarding that must be.
Dog guy but saved a feral abandoned kitten last year. Took a week of coaxing with food to finally gain his trust. Found him an owner. Went by to feed him while the owner was out of town. After a year...
I miss those guys. And their movies.
Not blessed with one of those. My motivation is number one being a good steward of the items I possess and number two, grease the skids to maximize return on "my children" to benefit my nieces and...
