Brown Hawk Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 4 hours ago, pipedreams said: American tanks entering the Mauthausen concentration camp, 1945. M8 armored car from the 11th Armored Division, the day after the initial liberation of the camp. Keep in mind that these are the healthiest and strongest of the inmates. And some of these people died before the end of the month, some from the wild emotions of finally being free. Hawk 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of my friends has one, but I was moved right into a .22 Short Semi-auto, Winchester model 74. My son got that gun and he has since given it to his daughter. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was 12 my grandmother bought me a 22 rifle, Mossberg if I remember correctly. I think my brother may still have it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamboolman Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) J8 - that was me growing up also. I had BB guns from as long as I can remember. My first rifle was this Ithaca Single Shot 22 that I got when I was 8 or 9. Still have it to this day. http:// Edited February 24, 2019 by gamboolman 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipedreams Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 (edited) These children lost their homes after a bombing raid on London in 1940. They rescued some of their toys. By the way those were carrots on a stick for a treat since that was all that was available. Edited February 25, 2019 by pipedreams 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a kid I can remember being terrified of the photos of children laying in those. Victims of polio. As a student nurse I cared for a post polio syndrome patient who slept in one.
