A long time ago in a Marine Corps far, far away I was a young Private at Camp Geiger being issued my fancy M16A4. This was late 2008 and the M16A4 was quite modern for the time, at least for this future infantryman. I spent my time on boot camp with an M16A2, so the […]
Costa Sunglasses reign supreme around the water. And they have for years. Just take a look at what most professional waterman wear.
