Subdeacon Joe Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Forest Service Ranger using a treetop lookout phone, Santiam (Willamette) National Forest, Oregon. 1912. Notice the C96 Broomhandle Mauser with wood stock holster. Back then Rangers typically carried modern autoloading pistols, as technology and science were used to assume their control over land and nature.

Pat Riot Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Years ago I tried to get a job in the U.S. Forest Service as an electronics / electrical technician. The main responsibility would be maintaining and repairing communication towers and stations. I refused to work for poverty wages and deal with the Enviro-Nazis the Clinton Administration injected into all the Federal Services including the Military bases. Did you know that for a time at Fort Hunter-Ligget in CA that if the Army wanted to conduct mock tank battles on their own base the base commanders had to get authorization from the Federal Environmental Office posted there? It’s true. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
