Special Thanks to Steve Stalter who did an outstanding job on his portion of the weapon artwork.
Wayne Breaux, Roger Peterson and George Evans for jumping in on short notice to help on the art.
Lastly, I must thank my hard working wife, Maryann, who put a year of research and work into this
monster of a book. (And Kevin who kept telling me I could do it).
