There are some vivid accounts of the UDTs in Ian Toll’s Pacific war trilogy.

Dang, there was some great writing and performing on that show.

When a woman says “you decide”, and you make a decision, it is often followed by, “are you sure?”

Maybe you can get Marshal Mo Hare to find one for you. Apparently the guy that makes them lives in Russia.

There’s some cool stuff in there, but the post is from 2009.

That beer looks like it might be a Sierra Nevada, if it is he has good taste in beer at least
That’s not beer. It’s a child water bottle. Seriously.

You had options. You chose this one.

Plenty of power for knockdowns at CAS distances.
I settled on this load because it’s economical and easier on my shoulder. No need or desire to beat myself up. There’s still plenty of flame and boom.
The main objective with shot shells is producing a well-distributed pattern. Some folks use too much powder which produces a pattern that looks like a donut. Be sure you pattern yours.
Your shells look great. Love the flame!

Yeah and I hear that most of them are color now too.

Some of you of a certain age might remember that from the Mercedes Benz song.

Yup, they were paid off. My parents helped with what they could with short term loans for tuition, which was about $1,300/yr. at University of Kansas. I worked year round for everything else.
To this day I don’t understand why 12 hours/semester is considered full time. In my day, that was the threshold between part time and full time students. The average student load was 16 hours. No wonder it takes so long to graduate.
The outrageous cost of college now is a direct result of easy loans backed by the govt. There’s been no reason for colleges to reign in the cost.

Unless and until the OP gets back to us, continuing this thread is sort of pointless.

Watching the lower gear swivel, I can't help thinking the whole thing looks like one of those hula dancer gag gifts.

Ummm...no. So many things to criticize, so little time. But watching him struggle to get up and then waddle downrange was the stand-out moment. I'd like to see how he does in the rain.

Meh. The algorithm between my ears prefers these two. YMMV.
