In a wartime German publication there was a picture of two soldiers wearing such masks.<\/p>\n

These were splinter pattern camouflage.<\/p>\n

These masks were home-made and not official issue.<\/p>\n

Several years ago a dealer in New Jersey cut up old camouflage shelter quarters and made copies of the mask.<\/p>\n

The thread his seamstress used was polyester and it will bubble when a flame is put to it instead of burning cleanly.<\/p>\n

I do not know what the asking price is for one of these but $10.00 would be reasonable.<\/p>\n

Mr. Royster:<\/p>\n

One of my readers sent this really funny email to me. I thought you might find it entertaining<\/p>\n

CJ<\/p>\n

\u201cPicture an ageing R—– J——, ensconced in his vinyl-lined wheelbarrow, on the sagging front porch of his north Georgia home, feebly strumming his one-string banjo, and singing, a la Judy Garland, ‘Somewhere under the tail…” while looking longingly at the fundament of his bored bulldog.<\/p>\n

And the neighbors shut their windows in anger because, as one of them said recently, J—— sounds like a death struggle between an old hog and a wildcat.<\/p>\n

Never worry, the bulldog is safe.<\/p>\n

In J——‘s case the thought never gives rise to the deed.<\/p>\n

The last time that happened was during the Truman administration.\u201d<\/p>\n
