I enlisted the help of a friend to scan many of the photos and articles from Michael Petrov's file cabinets. here are a few.









This last one is my favorite, the caption should read "... and the bullet comes out this end ..."

Enjoy,
Joe

Thanks for all the pictures you've been sharing Joe. Maybe there is some hope for the future, it seems like back sixty some years ago, the firing line had a bunch of old timers on it. They probably wondered if the traditions were dying out. Maybe one of the younger fellows is still around to comment about those times.
