The 1911A1 on the cover must be an interesting one. Why 1911A1? Was it a gun captured by German and then liberated by GI, or was it used to capture the Artillery above, or, .... too many possibilities. I will hold my curiosity and find the answer in the book

Sorry, you can't 'read' into the cover The cover is a compilation that Brad did for me from items at the shop, but most of the items on the cover are of types of guns and items in the book.
From memory; there are WW1 artillery stories, a WW2 artillery capture story, (3) Vietnam Vet 1911 (and or A1) stories; a G43 (is that the german semi auto?); an arisaka bring back, numerous lugers; to include a D-Day bring back that was owned by a friend, then mine, then Lyn's and even some odd ones

Overall, as Vlim said, a book I found personally fun to put together and as some comedian once said, stories short enough for a "break"
