    I think I'd sling my carbine rather than rest it on my cojones.

    The center guy in the front group looks like a young Jack Palance. Jack was a B-24 pilot in the Army Air Corps in WWII and was wounded in a fiery crash on the West Coast. The rebuilding of his face yielded that visage we came to know so well.

    I thought we saw this before and determined it was Raiders? The painted helmets...? Too, I've seen army reserve painted like that early in the war.
