Very much like a tackle box, only with twice as many drawers.<br /><br />Got a little dicey when my infant son started crawling and getting into it, so now it's up high next to my combo covers.<br /><br />My dad was an Army Captain in the 70s. Kept his stuff in a drawer and his uniforms in the "don't wear these anymore" closet. But I got his combo cover, and would wear it with my toy light-up sword, red superman/mighy mouse cape, and red-white-and-blue-USA 80's windsuit when I was 4 or 5. Now I regret messing it up, but he just shrugs his shoulders; "I didn't have anymore use for it. Better for you to play with it."Response by LCDR Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 11 at 2019 12:05 PM2019-04-11T12:05:48-04:002019-04-11T12:05:48-04:002014-02-16T20:36:15-05:00
