Well....this has nothing to do with Olive Drab or lucky buggers spending Christmas in Mexico!! (I hate you Rob!) It's just a "Merry Christmas Photo" taken 67 years ago on Christmas Day evening. My father worked for the local newspaper. And as it happened, there was a murder in the town and a reporter was sent out to cover the story. When he finished his story, he dropped by our house for some Christmas cheer, which was a very customary thing to do in those days. Not like today. Anyway, yours truly fell asleep on the couch, toys in hand, and the photo was taken by the reporter. And what you see here, is what appeared on the front page of next days newspaper. As you can see...I was into trains before I got into military vehicles. However, the posture on the couch remains pretty well the same!
Take a moment to take care of yourselves and your families, get vaccinated and have a safe and healthy New Year.
Cheers....Robert
