Former Alaska Senator John Binkley gives Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld and Russian Minister of Defense Sergei Ivanov a tour of the $600,000 bronze and granite monument at the dedication of the Alaska-Siberia Lend-Lease Memorial in Fairbanks, Alaska, Aug. 27. The sculptures reflect the equipment and clothing pilots wore in the 1940s while stationed at Ladd Field in Fairbanks, now Fort Wainwright. At right is the Eielson Air Force Base honor guard. The memorial honored pilots who had flown aircraft during WWII to Russia through Alaska.

Well...I've been moose hunting for about a week now and I've had no success except for this duck that happened to be in the wrong pond at the wrong time. He was my first kill by bow and arrow. Hopefully I'll get those illusive moose. Bow hunting a moose is rather difficult, but finding them seems to be the hardest part. I found a moose yesterday, but he walked across the road and into a "No Hunting" area. Go figure. He laid down about 100 yards from the road and all I could do was stare at him. Anyway. Wish me luck.
