From there to Naples where it was later stuffed in a dufflebag and booked on a liberty ship back to the states. <BR/><BR/>It has had 35 rounds through it, there are 15 rounds left in the box of ammo he was issued with it.<BR/>7 of those are going to be fired in salute of the old Tailgunner when he takes his last ride. I hope it is quite a few years hence.Kevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03495034446711564393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659715953846222592.post-46956572706244206482009-03-09T12:07:00.000-07:002009-03-09T12:07:00.000-07:00Drool.....Drool.....PeterThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05309273546686029384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659715953846222592.post-37672421067090869122009-03-08T17:03:00.000-07:002009-03-08T17:03:00.000-07:00Jerry beat me to it...
