[Hey-O]

as an Army Veteran I can say that piece of equipment was my favorite. Nothing like the sound of brrrrrrrp when we were in theatre. I think these things scared most insurgents more then our Blackhawk's and Apache's.

First, thank you for your service!
There are a list of weapons and equipment the military uses that is bad to the bone, but when I see a warthog the hair on the back of my neck stands up!!! A flying cannon that can survive more damage than anything we have and still be extremely dangerous. A beautiful machine.

Agreed brother! I hope they don't actually retire that thing until they have something that can truly replace that beautiful beast!

THESE ARE NOT COLOURIZED. Although Kodachrome and Agfa colour film were still decades away, the Autochrome Lumière process, invented in France, was patented in 1903. These weren't printed on paper, they were viewed much like a slide transparency. Here's a sample from way back when, the dates are when they were first taken.

The 1935 Monaco-Trossi was designed to race in Grand Prix. However, due to terrifying driving dynamics, it never did. It has a 16 cylinder, 2-stroke, 3982cc air-cooled radial engine and front wheel drive.
