Soldier runs down the King!


I have just been contacted by a fellow who has bought a 1942 Chevrolet 3 tonner. With the vehicle the owners gave him a newspaper clipping. The soldier in question (obviously an idiot) has carved his name and serial number on the glove box door.

Owner says that, combined with obvious repairs to the left front of the vehicle would suggest the driver and truck are the subjects of this article. Too good circumstantial evidence to deny a claim of attempted regicide!

If the magistrate was so worried by double jeopardy punishment against British justice he could have let the soldier off with a civil warning to be dealt with by military authorities.
