Sorree - it seems your poor old Uncle should stick to things strictly avian when it comes to pictures that he thought might amuse you. The caption to our picture the other week sparked a huge ruckus among military vehicle enthusiasts, and left me feeling very much in the soup (duck that is). Nephew Mark Hazzard et al have swamped me with emails saying that the swimming vehicles were in fact NOT DUKWs after all, but were rather Ford GPAs - the amphibious version of the Jeep. Also known as the SEEP for obvious reasons.
