Re: Christmas wish list
Oh man I second the wish for an Ironclad! I'd love to steam into San Francisco bay with a Monitor!
Mr White, I used to work for the guitar player for the Standells, Tony Valentino, in his scooter & motorcycle shop in the early 80's. Cool, funny trip of a guy. Oh the stories I could tell..........

Re: Christmas wish list
Pards & Comrades,
I have enjoyed viewing this post. In my assesment It has gone in different routes. Some have put down what they would/ could realistically get or purchase for themselves for Christmas. Still others have made this into a true wish list as if there where really a jolly old man to make dream come true, still others have used this posting as a chance to dream of idealistic utopia.
I choose to indulge.
I want a fully equipped supply wagon with a team of four mules( and the money to keep them) . Cost ???
I also want and will find a way to get a Miltia cap for a Milita event in Kenosha Wisconsin. Cost Around $100
