After reading this great story with photos on a boating forum, I knew that members here would appreciate it. Story and photos of a 1911 that stopped a sniper's bullet on Iwo Jima. http://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=17880
What part of "uphold the constitution" don't they understand?

Wow! Always enjoy the parts of history that don't make the news but bring the story to life.
My wife must be a cross between a Indian and a bulldog. When she's not on the warpath, she's sitting on her butt growling.
We're burnin daylite.

When I was a kid, my dad had a friend who brought back a M1 Carbine from Korea that a bullet had struck the bolt and imbedded. It was cool, and scary to think about.
