Hey Ted,

I wonder if the "Vietnam War Photographer" told of the problems with 
Leicas jamming, and the reliability of the Nikon Rangefinders as part 
of the sales pitch to Mr. Gandy, when Mr. Gandy was "lucky 
enough to buy his wartime outfit"?

My 47 year old IIIc and 42 year old M3 have both been used hard, look 
the part, but work beautifully.
