Sergeant Jeffery R. Lighton was a member of Headquarters Company 2nd Brigade 101st Airborne Division. He served in the Army from February 1966 to January 1969 including duties in the States, Germany and Vietnam. I have his contact info and I'm in the process of trying to contact him.
A few reasons why I didn't jump on it. The first being the price. He was asking $1500 which without bring back papers I thought was high. I didn't realize these were tough to find and bring good money. I know the dealers contact info and emailed him with an offer. If it hasn't sold, I may have a...

Yes its worse. We are hoping for a cold snap not enough to damage the citrus trees but to kill off a lot of the Iguana population. Years back we had a nice cold snap and a few days later I was down by the lake and smelled something dead. I looked up in my large palm tree to see a dead black...
Never eaten Iguana. I asked the wife about it and she said your not cooking that on MY grill! LOL.
I've seen video's of people making a stew out of them and they said they were tasty. I think they are nasty creatures so I seriously doubt I'll ever attempt to eat one. I live on a lake and have...
Hello All,
I collect Vietnam bring back weapons and I'm looking for some nice examples to add to my collection. They must have associated paperwork or have a presentation plaque attached.
I'm in South Florida and have a C&R license. I can accept from non-FFL's as long as a copy of your State...
