I haven't been able to create anything of late, the old hands are going numb on me too fast to doing anything accurately. I DID NOT create this image... it is a scan of a United States Postal Service postcard. I thought I'd post it here, because it brought back memories for me. I remember infantrymen standing out there in the snow, freezing their asses off, while I was sitting inside an M-46 tank, freezing my ass off... The M-46 tanks had a heater in the driver's compartment and one in the turret, both of which did not work, because we could never get the igniters for the damned things. I think the Brass didn't want us to have the igniters, because they figured we'd blow are stupid asses up.
Here is a direct link to my page for The 6th Tank Battalion... there are two pages for the 6th in Korea... click the next button at the bottom of the first page:
