Or, as George MacDonald Fraser put it about the Lee Enfield, “If single, aimed shots were good enough for Wellington, they’re good enough for me.”
M15 Binoculars, as made in the last years of WWII. Still in use 75+ years later.
I don’t usually post here, but I thought you all might get a kick out of this. These are the binoculars issued to my US military work truck. No one here (including myself) had any idea how old they were until we started googling things. As far as we can tell these binoculars have been in use since our base was built just after WW2!
