“There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

Hope ol mate does not slip a bit and grab the left 50's barrel judging by the empty ammo can he's just made the enemy duck so she'd be a tad warm!
