Bill ?

The MP'S are carrying Garands. You don't see that very often. The Col. Has a granade, don't see that very often either. What about the man on the tank in the beret? Just some of my observations.....Frank

SNAFU, I'm referring to a two star making his way down the road with his Col. at his side. The General had his people create a photo op. Rifles are slung, camera crew off to the side. The conqueror on parade

BTW, the jeep in the background is a Holden ambulance jeep or a customized jeep for the General..

I noticed the jeep in back too Bill. It looks like it's pulling around to pick the brass back up again. You know if there's a jeep anywhere around they wouldn't be walking.
