One of the many reminders that "freedom isn't free" ... we all know that. Hopefully these photos won't offend anyone, if so, I'll promply take them down.

Mark, my friend, I thought I had seen most of the good Kodachrome stuff from the war, but holy jumpin' Jeebus, you've really outdone yourself once again with some of this stuff. Just truly remarkable.

Keep on keepin' on, bud! :drink3:
