Now, with you being from England and your favourite empire being the Solomani AND your favourite adventure being 'Twiglet's Peak'....

Is that the one where players get embroiled in Twiglet's career just as it reaches it's height? Twiglet is, of course, Twiggy's far future descendent....

Hey, that COULD make a good adventure....I LOVE Traveller!

Feh, you're a young'un. M-1's or M-60's? If the former, you haven't seen a scarcophagus yet...

(Though I admit, of late old M-60A3's such I once served in have been showing up on gate guard or in front of local VFW posts... Very mixed feelings seeing that.)

19K, the whole M1 family. Though my favorite was the M1-A1Hvy, drove a mineplow, so I'd certainly be the first one to know if I missed one.

That being said, we retired the 8th Army's M-60's in South Korea. It was kind of sad, really. Having grown up imagining and dreaming of those things, driving down to the port, knowing we were taking them on their last drive on active duty.

Regards,
Larry
