WWII gunners reunite with their "baby".

  Photos below: 3rd Armored, 486th Anti-Aircraft Battalion vets Clayton Chalfant of Wesport, CT, and John Donnangolo of Bridgeport, CT, are finally back in the saddle in an awesome quad-.50's gun turret.The arrival of an M-16 half-track for the Gen. Rose Dedication was more than a curiosity for the men of the 486th in attendance. They had not seen an M-16 since 1945.
