Would be great if Trump's plan to buy Iceland comes to fruition, especially now, knowing the history. We were willing to shed blood to defend Iceland. |

Thanks, I appreciate that.
These older era boxes are a challenge, anything from Korea and before really require some research to get it right. Most of the smaller units served have been decommissioned and hard to find patches, etc. The families really are surprised I could come up with stuff they don't even remember. These are great winter projects.
