When my Dad passed 10 years ago I got his old M1 Garand. I had bid on a bayonet for it " an original not a repro" and have been out bid every time.I showed my wife one that I bid on and she said "oh my mom has one of those". Well of course I laughed thinking she didn't know what she was talking about. She said her mom has used it in her flower garden since my wife's uncle brought it home from the Korean war. I thought yeh right. Well she brought it home last night. Lol, I couldn't believe it. It is in amazing shape for 50 plus years of use digging in the flowers. Now I have to buy my mother in law a new garden tool. My photos are a bit blurry but you can still see all the markings. Her mom and dad both have dementia and do not remember how they got it. Wife had a great uncle that fought in WW1. I tend to think that it may be where it came from. Her Korean war uncle is still alive but has bad Alzheimers. It has a date of 1918 on it and the flying US bomb. It also has a wooden handle and the point is a bit different then the ones I have been looking at. It also has a marking that my photos don't show very well that I think is AFH. Would love to hear your opinions on it or any insight that you might have. I was holding it last night couldn't help think if it could only tell it's stories.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
