If this is the picture you’re talking about . . .

. . . then the jackass standing behind it is the one that should be worried, first round out the barrel and what’s the donkey likely to do? :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

With all the weaponized warrior donkey’s, there’s bound to be an MIA donkey…

Aka…lost my @$$ notice…

^^^ Posted locally this week after donkey escape. The donkey was found and returned to owner. (Phone number removed as the story has a happy ending.)

My wife’s grandfather served in the 45th ID in WWII as an artilleryman. He made four assault landings in the MTO. But during the Italian campaign, in the winter of 43/44, being a farm boy from Minnesota, he became a mule skinner. And he actually ended up in a photo in a book about the 45th during that time period

That’s him on the ground by the truck’s tailgate

Moorhead Minnesota. My wife is looking on Ancestry.com and just found his draft card. He moved to CA after WWII, in the 40’s or 50’s.
