Snowball fight before departing for the front, Winter 1941/42. I think it`s important to remember that propaganda is just that - dehumanization. Soldiers are soldiers, and young men are young men. It`s the same the world over.

Some things never change. My first tour in Korea we had a massive snowball fight between the two units on our little post one day.

Supposed photo of South Armagh IRA Sniper, nicknamed either "Terminator" or "Goldfinger." Interesting to see he doesn`t support the butt at all, like is taught in modern circles.

Female combatants of the Irani Basij militia train with handguns, 1985 Who wants to bet those are all Tariqs and not legit Berettas?

That's Dennis Hopper.
What did you mean about the shooter with the Barrett not supporting the butt "like is taught in modern circles"?

It seems to me the "in-vogue" thing currently is to grip the "primary(?)" area with the dominant hand (around the pistol grip in this case) and to hold the butt at the heel and hold it against your shoulder with the support arm bent and underneath the rifle. EDIT TO ADD Thank you for catching my typo on the name, for some reason I always get "Walker" and "Hopper" confused.

Does the tariq have any different defining features? Not that would be visible from that distance, nor at the resolution available. I originally typed 1951s but took a closer look at a trigger guard and began wondering if it wasn`t an early or non-US model 92 of somesort, like the 92S.

"Lieutenant Commander Donald D. Sheppard aims an arrow at a bamboo hut hiding a VC bunker on the the Bassac River, Vietnam. December 8, 1967" I`ve heard elsewhere that Sheppard was an avid bowhunter in the states, but have no confirmation.
