And a beautifully restored Mk 10 Naval Mine to your right, I might add.

I hope you removed the detonator.

My wife and I celebrating our 25th. Milford Sound, NZ on a rare clear day. (They get over 8 meters of rain per year there

http://picasaweb.google.com/CRSutt/SelectedNewZealandAndTahitPhotos?authkey=wRppT9PdpkY#5141108817298102146




Fantastic photos.



Thanks all, If you ever get a chance it is the place to visit. Just plain beautiful and the people are the nicest you could ever hope to meet. I have been lucky to see a lot of the world in my day. But NZ is at the top of the list.

Of course, if you go, then fly on "Air Tahiti Neu". A few days in French Polynesia on stopover will do you little harm, and the flight attendents are "easy on the eyes". Air New Zealand was excellent too but the attendents look too much like my Aunt Netty.

The same place in February 1942

There were more than 3000 GI's who have spent all the war in this isolated island, doing nothing after the completion of the fortifications and a big airstripe still in use nowadays.
The photo comes from a small book "GIs in paradise" which explains all the story about operation "Bobcat" which was a logistic nightmare. By reading this book you see that in WIP the transport capacity of the American at the beginning of 1942 is far overevaluated.

I guess this equals more than out by the total overevaluated transport capacity of the Japanese for the whole war...
