I took this on the plane to Iceland. To see photos from my trip to the UK visit my blogspot or my facebook page
It was hard not to notice Steve. He definitely stood out from the crowd despite his camouflage at the Bicentennial commemoration of the Battle of York in Toronto. The Battle of York took place during the War of 1812.
Steve is in the Canadian military and I thought he looked like Sasquatch but this is really a ghillie suit, a form of camouflage worn in combat to blend into foliage. He was one of several soldiers in uniform mingling with the crowd and representing the modern Canadian Forces.
When I asked to photograph him for my projechttp://www.utah.com/destinations/t he was quite accommodating and even met my request that he move the strands aside "a bit" so that at least part of his face would be visible. When I asked Steve just where this suit would be worn to blend into the surroundings, he shrugged and guessed "A haystack, maybe." We both had a laugh as he explained that this suit is not that practical in combat and would likely tangle with a rifle and that it is often worn at public events like today's.
Thank you Steve for being Stranger #39 for my project.

1941 Chevrolet AK Series Pickup
Chassis No: KEA183597
History: The 1941 Chevrolet AK Series pickup brought to the General Motors light-truck lineup a new sense of strength in design and engineering. Knowing their products might soon be rolling into World War II encouraged truck makers to design stronger, more versatile new models for the early 1940s. This was Chevy's broadest commercial truck lineup yet.
The 1941 truck design was related to the passenger cars, beveled grille bars were horizontal in the upper section, vertical below; headlamps sunk partly into the front fenders. All this added up to quite a streamlined Chevy, more modern looking than the T-series Dodge and the 1941 Ford, if not quite as sleek as the new Studebaker M-series or International's K-line.
A crank-open windshield and metal-framed door windows were new features, while the wide, comfortable seat used a latex-bound hair pad on coil springs. Brochures noted a tailgate "heavily reinforced with box-type girders and channels, welded to form an all-steel unit of extraordinary strength and rigidity" and fitted with an "anti-rattle fastening."
Pickups came in 1/2- and 3/4-ton versions, the latter on a longer 125-inch wheelbase. Boxes were heavy-gauge steel with a durable wooden floor, reinforced and protected with steel skid strips.
KEA183597: Presented here, is one of the most beautifully restored ’41 Chevy Pickups currently on the market! No detail was overlooked during the meticulous, frame-off restoration of this fine vehicle. Every component of the truck has been refreshed or replaced. Finished in a two-tone green finish complimented by a brown and tan interior; the ’41 boasts many extras such as dual wipers, heater, wooden bed rails, chrome bumpers, protective side steps, and dual exhaust. Mechanically strong through out, this classic collectable is sure to bring joy to its new owner for many years to come!
