Trying to find time in my busy schedule(just joking, I'm retired)(naps) to build this.



Props to the U.S. Navy for letting the Marines acquire these.

I'll be going to Texas soon, and a lot, maybe even driving, so if I am passing by, I'll use that camera Rick likes so much. The camera is doing great, it is about 10-12 years old. My youngest daughter is doing USAF there and I might bring her car to the Lone Star.:driver:
