That would have come in handy when I got lost on the way from Tonawanda to Latrobe. :lol:

Our budget at the local level would have only gotten you as far as the state line ...

I'm guessing this is photoshopped, as the helicopter does not comply with PFRA logo/identity standards.

That ain't nothing. You should've seen the PFRA Abrams. It was used only for beer runs before being donated to Ukraine last year.

Rumor has it that the Tank was often referred to as "The Younger" and that Fred Gerhke painted the original PFRA logo on it.

You'd think Gerhke would be a hot candidate for the PFRA's HOVG.

He might be... if he hadn't left the "A" off of the PFRA logo on the front of the tank... that's points against.

The definition of a chapter in the PFRA is a sub-organization of the PFRA that serves people in a specific geographic area. A virtual chapter that is all-inclusive of PFRA members is simply the PFRA itself but virtually. The PFRA needs to think about how to do more virtual things, perhaps an off-year virtual conference, but a virtual chapter is not the thing.
One could argue that "virtual space" is a distinct geographic area, independent of "meat space".

I'm all in with meat space.
