Cool, for a minute there I thought you were getting an early jump on the Sunday Foxhole.

Looks like on of the jeep carriers in the picture.

An update if I may. If you visited the website about the typhoon you may have seen many references to Chuck Smith aboard the USS BROWN who rescued Evan Fenn and his six shipmates from the USS MONAGHAN. Chuck is responsible for much of the firsthand accounts that have been preserved for history's sake. We got to eavesdrop on the conference call that brought these two sailors together for the first time since December 21, 1944. It is an amazing experience only veterans can truly appreciate I think.
