    Iwo jima

    Just on line dropped for everyone to remember that today is the 70th Anniversary of the famous Battle of ‪‎Iwo Jima, WWII‬.
    Originality can't be restored, so put "originality" at the top of a priority list. If JMB didn't put it on the 1911 you don't need it.

    "The 1911 was the design, given by God to us through John M. Browning, that represents the epitome of what a killing tool needs to be. It was true in 1911 and it's true now." - Col. Robert Coates commanding, U.S. Marine Corp Special Operations Command Detachment 1 (DET 1)

    Thanks for the reminder.
    A good friend was there as an 18 year old Marine on the front line, not many survivors from his platoon. He had a lot of stories but he passed away 3 months ago.
