Me too. And what the heck was "tiny tim" used for? I've never heard of it.

OK, now you have gone and done it!!!
Every wanna-be terrorist whacko will be down there with his metal detector and shovel looking for fodder.

A "Tiny Tim" was an 11.75" Aerial Rocket. As an unguided rocket, it was launched from an aircraft against ground targets.
Your vacation the the Florida beach, might have been more exciting that hunting sea shells.
LOL
Any pics?

Sheesh--from the looks of Vero Beach--it resembles a scene where a few bombs detonated.
