Harping, sinister? Your post surprises me. Just pointing out that a tradition that has spanned many decades has ended for no good reason. The Scouts are the only individuals that place the flags at the VA cemetery, I have no doubt they are responsible enough to follow the covid19...

Not many Scouts are over the age of 20. Perhaps there are, none that I am aware of.

and it is not even the season yet. https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/gtwo.php?basin=atlc&fdays=5

Ruh Roh. :ninja: Comply or else. https://ocscanner.news/2020/05/16/oc-sheriff-compliance-patrol-cameras/?fbclid=IwAR1Src39IB2XmbL5-4kSFuw_vr5fqvaMInKtw4KD6vMsGxRGRhiTt-F3Dvs

If you have one, take along an air pump that uses your car cigarette lighter and reduce the air pressure in your tires to 15-20 lbs. Will be a big help in not getting bogged down in the soft sand. Use the pump to air up after your trip.

You need a HD mask for them :eek:

and you get the urge, you can now satisfy it.

I've been working on it most of the day on the exhaust using an unconventional way, similar to how I pulled the engine and trans from the Jag. One part just won't fit, a gasket, called a 'donut' :rolleyes:, between the down pipe and exhaust manifold. Autozone claims to have an alternate part...

This is from the Department of Veterans Affairs, Washington DC. It is specific to 'group' placement of the flags, as is done at Doyle here in NJ. It does not restrict cemetery personnel from placing flags, as seems to be what is being done in Delaware. Doyle is a very large VA cemetery, I...

at Island Beach State Park this year. :eek:

The age of concessions is upon us.

It would be so simple to have the scouts spaced on alternating rows and wear a mask and let it be the parents decision. I bought a bunch of flags today and will be at Coyle next week to take care of family and friends.

Scouts will not be placing flags for this Memorial Day.

I have all the little helpful things, some not so much. I've been restoring LBC's for over 30 years. The height of this one is perfect for what I need to do, and the Jeep will even fit without hitting the garage door. :) The height is somewhat adjustable with the lift blocks that are supplied...

Yes, one on each side. The green things are covers for the locking quick connect's on each hydraulic hose. Disconnect them and nothing is in the way underneath.

Put it together today, easy peasy. It is actually an electric/hydraulic combo, 5k lb capacity. Stout enough to lift my Jeep. This is the GTI up in the air during the first test.

I think it was designed to target bombers, whatever it was it had to be flying. I know McGuire was the first Air Force missile defense site; the nike's were used by the Army.

Also a great fishing spot. :)

That was the BOMARC site. The missles there were nuclear tipped ground to air, not nike's.
