Men/Would you wear these pants?
Kind of reminds me of the work out pants I used to wear back in the 90s. In fact I found a pair in my closet last week. I wonder if Hulk Hogan still wears them ?- DutchIndo

Zootshooting
That looks like fun, I always wanted to do something similar but with Carbines and Garands. Why should the Cowboy Action shooters have all the fun ? I guess it would be PIC with the targets I guess.- DutchIndo

The Canteen is back
The Canteen covers are suppose to keep the canteen cool. One has to soak the covers inside. This will cause the canteen to cool through evaporation. What we did in Boy Scouts was to fill a Canteen half way and stick it in the freezer uncapped. Next day fill the rest with water this worked with... -

8 Track
Who could forget the CHUGA CHUGA between the tracks. That was an annoying feature especially if you were listening to Jethro Tulls "Passion Play" or "Thick as a Brick". Cassette tapes now are pretty much done. I would always record my albums on Chrome Tape. I never dabbled with the Metal Tapes... -

Where were you on July 20, 1969?
I can still remember, I was out in the front yard playing (11 years old). My Pop called me from the house to come in and watch it on TV. I remember being torn between playing and watching the Astronauts. I came in watched it for a minute then went out to play. My Pop who worked in Seal Beach...- DutchIndo

When is enough ENOUGH?
Oh it's an obsession, I have tubs and tubs full of Uniforms and field gear. My closets are full of Jackets I never wear. I won't even get into to Firearms. I think in the last 10 years it's gotten worse for me. Two reasons becoming single again and the Internet.- DutchIndo

Food Memories
I remember the old kid standby in the 60s, Bologna on Wonder Bread (Yeech !). This was usually washed down with copious amounts of Green Kool-Aid (Double Yeech !). Yesterday at work some of us "OGs" were talking Ice Cream. Who remembers "Long Johns" my favorite. These were cylindrical Orange and...- DutchIndo

The Planes of Fame Air Show in Chino, CA
Great Air Museum, I was fortunate to have worked as a volunteer years ago. My friends and I worked the Airshow directing traffic, selling Cokes and Programs. I remember Chino before it was the Museum as it is now. My Father flew me and my brother into Chino back in the late 60s. It was a real... -

"Band of Brothers" hero's passing...
I've met many a "Shifty" in my life. Always the humble Warrior type no bragging. They always seem suprised when you show interest in what they have done. -

Vintage WW2 Mustaches
Some of the Germans gave me the Heebe Jeebies with their Haircuts. They had the Shaved sides (to the skin) and long on top. My Dad had a similar haircut when he was in the Dutch Airforce. It must be a European thing. Don Burgett mentions Germans with long hair in his book Curahee. What really I... -

Vintage WW2 Mustaches
Rank is also important, I believe one had to be a least a corporal. I know the "Stash" had to be even with the corners of the mouth. The popular style in WWII was the Errol Flynn type. -

Hitler's Secret Weapon Unveiled
I worked with a guy who's Father help rebuild the Flying Wing at the Chino Air Museum. These were recovered from a Nuke Test out in the Desert. I was there at the first public test flight. My friend explained to me that since the "Wing" had no rudder it used a "Split Flap". This Flap would open...
