Hi All,
While on duty yesteday I was assigned to work a traffic detail for a March of Dimes Walkathon. Beautiful day, good detail! Part of my job was to erect the wooden traffic barriers one of which decided to be extremely stubborn. Well, you know what came next. Out came the AK from the cruiser and a few chops later the barrier was brought into comliance. Children were crying and women were weeping at the very sight. The Sgt. thought it was the neatest thing since sliced bread! That was it's first (and certainly not last) "official" use.
I'll be taking it with me to the Rendevous (18th century encampment) for the next 5 days. LOTS of wood to chop!!! We'll see how it fits in with the 1700s motif. Bill, how can I explain to the "authentic detail" nitpickers how an eastern woodsman/rifleman came into possession of a khukuris?
