The winter of 1960-1 found the 3 RCHA in Germany. It is possible the clip was taken in Germany perhaps as late as 1962 by which time my parents were rarely, if ever, using the 8mm movie camera. The original 8mm films are long gone so I can't confirm the date. I have many 35 mm slides to sort through and think there might be more gun line photos, if people are interested. Jon
