Man what a pile of brass to adjust a machine gun. I could volunteer to help if it was not so far away.

Snow today but it is melting with out sun. Maybe this is the last one this year. Give me some of that Gorebull warming or Spring whichever you choose to call it.

GOD BLESS AND PROTECT OUR TROOPS AND OUR BELOVED NATION!



The Star Spangled Banner – Verse Four
(Click)


Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Please let me know by Freepmail if you would like
to be admitted to or released from my music ping list.

I keep looking at that picture knowing it is two guys, but I can’t find both of them. The guy shooting has no head. And that pile of brass is HUGE!

Good evening, mountainlion...hope spring is just around the corner for you.

We never had much winter...spring seems here to stay.
