Clive, We are all waiting with baited breath...

I am sure there will be some interesting responses - particularly about some of the statements made in the HUP book... time will tell.

I'll make a comment: It feels funny to be looking at the pamphlet with the photo of the M109 as a obsolete museum artifact. My last 7 years in the service was spent supporting the guns. It seems like overnight the M109 (and for that matter the M113A2, which was a staple in the military) became redundant.

As always, I am looking forward to these and future new titles.

Rob, We're getting old.

I kind of figured that out this year at a milsurp shooting match we attended. My team had been coming in second at these things for almost the last decade....first for uniforms but always a close second for the shooting. This year we finally won both categories and I was at first ecstatic. But then I looked around the remaining teams and realized what we had just become.

Even the term we used to use "New deuce" for the MLVW is now becoming obsolete. The Shilo museum has one being issued to it. Mind you, there was a warning order very recently that the MLVW could remain in service for another 7 years.
