Interesting pic for the Jerries, but shouldn't it read '44 for Ardennes?

I took the photo at a Bulge event. I doctored the negative years later to be a German Christmas card.
The two are not mutually exclusive to each other. I was just filling you in on the back story of the photo taking. Merry Christmas Steve

Very true. Course show me one cab driver that gets to kick his fares out literally at the destination!! My most favorite part of the job!
I had a 11 series guy jump my Huey once and he called out "Hey Leg, when are we going to get the green light?" My reply "Listen Wind Dummy, I get to land in this contraption, you have to land by parachute and WALK to your destination, me I get to fly. So who is the LEG, you GT score flunky?"
