There's supporting documentation re. Sgt Heaven, and although the only 'proof' of origin is Sgt H's initials on the binocular, the story is so trivial that it's probably true.SIZE: the black-and-white marker at the bottom of the picture is divided into one inch sectionsClick here to see the Raffi System of Grading Optics
