I wasn't sure where else to put these but I thought some of you guys may like to see them. This is my Grandfather in law who I hear was a bad ***! He worked for the LA county Marshals office and these were some time about 1965-ish. I wish I could have met the old guy he sounds Awesome!









Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.

First pic quote "Say hello to my little friend!" Or more likely being 1965... "take that hippie protesters!"
