And now for an interesting non sequitur: some of you may not have heard of this, but a few years ago, Chrysler invented the chocolate-covered jeep contest, in which contestants had to lick the chocolate from the grilles of seven chocolate-covered jeeps to win an actual, NOT chocolate-covered jeep.
Here's the write-up, along with a picture of the winning contestant.
That's more chocolate than even I could eat.
And here are some pictures of jeeps in action during World War II.
Also seeing action in WWII was this Hershey's Tropical chocolate bar, which you can purchase from the WWII Supply Room, should you be so inclined.
No re-enactment would be complete without authentic chocolate from the era. You can, however, keep the authentic flak, shrapnel, and other intrusive devices friendly to neither man nor beast.
Hmmm....
The ancient iBook upon which I am typing this has begun making mysterious noises. Either it's going to crash, or it's pining for the fiords.
No, it's not a parrot.
Time Out.
