For you, I hope that you fell this way:





Those were good times - lol. Never got tired of firing live ammo; it beats the snot out of using the MILES equipment. :-)

Of course, picking up all that brass is a pain - but man! We had 548 Cargo Carriers back when I was in - the 50 was on a ring mount right over the cab. It didn't take long to fill the cab with brass. Dancing with a 50 was fun.

Thanks for jogging the old memory.


That sounds like you were a cannon cocker!

Can you smell pictures?









That looks like boot training at Fort Lenard Wood. We had to march five miles to get gassed. And it was an uphill march. Both ways. lol. I'll tell you what tho - troops figured out how to maintain a good seal on their gas mask after that training exercise...

That looks like a Chieftain. The turret is wrong for the Challenger. They should send a model to Kansas City and have it parked by the football stadium - or even in it.

That's a UK Chieftain from back in the day. She sports a 120mm rifled gun but she was kind of a hanger queen.
