It's all relative! Around here it often looks the same in February as it does in July - clear, dry, and sunny. It was 82* here last Saturday. Perfectly feasible beach weather. :) Of course, it also depends on what day it is, as Central Texas winter weather is a roller-coaster ride - it's...

I have dug through my rather massive photo file, nothing found so far, but I'll continue to dig. It is a bit frustrating at times - I have yet to identify the Army serial number for my V, so while I know where/when the 720th MP had it, and have numerous V photos from that time, I don't know...
