Shields68.jpgGun Crew in actionHere is the M-102 in all its glory. The older vets remember putting the M1A101 to work in 66-67. Note the attire: woolen shirt due to nightime temperature drops, bare back for the hot days, fatigue shirt and OD tee shirt. Yep...that about covers it!

Shields71.jpgWorking the cannonsPhenomenal Quality! These cannoncockers are working professionals. Note the clarity of the photo: you can see the 105mm round in all its glory. Note the pockets: one has a spoon, the other a pencil. You can see the well-worn handle on breechblock. Empty shell casings; aiming stakes. Yep! This is what things look like!
