If1Hitu,
Looks like you were in 'Nam just in time for "Tet". I misswed it as I was out of 'Nam by '66.

A friend of mine who passed away in '07 was Ira Hay's squad leader on Iwo Jima. The photo of the squad of Marines after the second flag raising has my friend in it. He is third from the left with his M-1 raised up.

I live about 15/20 minutes inland. From my stop on the highway I can see the lights of Sox field, and soldier Field on a clear day.

Welcome from the lower left side of the mitten. I bought a Charter Arms AR-7 new and although I still have it I agree that it is nothing special. Have been checking out the Henry and I may have to get one for Christmas. Will have to see which list I manage to get on.

Hey Ernie,
I used to spend a total of about three weeks on Glen Lake to your north in Leelanau County. Loved it!
Large house on 40 acres which belonged to a VP I worked for during the time I lived in Chicago.
Michigan is a beautiful state which provides me with many fond memories! :)
