That is just fantastic! We have a thread in the SH5 forums about introducing yourself. Or you can go to General Topics. We've had many discussions and read many books about the Mk 14s, and would love to hear his stories.

By the way, what part of SoCal are you from? I live in Utah now but grew up in Redondo Beach.
