If you look closely on the side of the tank away from Don, you can find the autographs of Babe Heffron and Wild Bill Guarnere.

Don: " Well , that's why you are a trooper , they teach you how to run 3 miles in 2 minutes " LOL

This pic Don shows us where Desobry ( co) was killed at the CP. There are stories about some troopers who hated Desobry and urinated on his dead body . Some stories are true , some are false . ....
More to read about in Marks next book . ...
