Several people have said it is just a rehash of previous issues but I read the whole thing and I don't recognized too much of it. Then I don't remember what I had for supper last night either? Oh and by the way Mom you are right this getting old really stinks! Bill

No date or issue number anywhere I can find.....and yeah, those helmets are pretty funky, but not as weird as the black scarf-hats in the next pic.

It's off most shelves by now, that's why you can't find it. I'm looking for the issue with the Mosin-Nagant's in it. No it's not the 2007, no matter if it's shown on the cover.
