That would be because they were c$%p in those days. I think I had 1 and I hardly ever used it.

Is that the Pat Parsons who was our equipment officer on Everest West Ridge in 1988?

Don't know. He was in the marines for many years. Same guy?

Postmanpat - 08/Aug/13

Almost certainly then, he was definitely a marine.
