Pete! You solved a long-time mystery for me!

I saw one of these when I was on a firing range at Fort Jackson, South Carolina! I thought I might be hallucinating, LOL!

Another mystery solved.

Now, let me tell you about the day I was on KP and went into the pantry and moved a #32 can of something and a cockroach the size of a Buick reared up on its hind legs and HISSED at me!

There’s a REASON I live ABOVE the Mason-Dixon line and appreciate our first hard freeze when all the bugs go back to H#ll where they belong! :)
