"For the second time since this summer I was at the MIR waiting on someone when a mother (with her son in tow) was giving some poor medic or someone a hard time."
- Back in 1973, my Mom thought my Mk II cbt Boots (the Mk Is had just been replaced) looked good. My step-father thought they were a lot better than the 'Ammo' boots he landed in Sicily with and wore until well after VE Day.
But, none of us thought I would wear them for 35 years, and spend a lot of time running in them to boot (sorry).
Now? Fallen arches. Orthotics. Mk IIIs with Vibrams, one sole starting to floppy.
But, hey, life could be worse...
