Why My Big Brother Is Still My Hero

That’s my big brother, the Mad Colonel, in the green shirt, looking like he’s not really enjoying the fact that he’s riding in an EFFING T34/85 TANK, FOR GOD’S SAKES!

My brother volunteers at the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa, and took part in their Tank Weekend last weekend, which I sadly missed.  As you can well understand, I am sure, he is still my hero.

    Looks like tedious work. I'm not jealous at all...

    Ha, now if I had a bigger brother I'd also love him for driving around in that beast of steel and making a sour face. Now I have make do with a little brother but love him nonetheless.... me thinks ;-)
