familiar image
My son's team purchased the item in the picture below during a break from mountain training. There's something very familiar about this image. http://professionalsoldiers.com/foru...1&d=1156745052 .
I told him no matter what he does, do not put it in the hallway with the rucksacks, as there could be cosmic repercussions.

LOL - Thack used to put signed pics in the Team Room. People would stop and read the sentiments and then be shocked - they were often NC 17 rated.
