I like this one - with all the Jeeps - I have a letter my dad wrote to his parents about getting a new Ops Officer in and them going rabbit hunting in a jeep - being military (Retire AF 24yrs) I could reed between the lines - I am thinking the left the club - Dad was driving and was shooting at the rabbits with a pistol, he was left handed and the new Ops Officer was standing and shooting over the windshield -
