I had a friend that was tunnel rat in Vietnam.
Tough job. He died relatively young, super nice guy,
he drank a lot of scotch and smoked Old Gold's non-filtered. -

That looks like my old platoon sergeant. Sergeant Karner. Can't remember his first name but he was a tunnel rat.Cambridge Audio 851N Streamer/DAC

The owner of Idaho Fence CO. In Post Falls Idaho ( who I used to work for) was a Tunnel Rat. Some real hair raising stories for sure. -
Close, Viking, but I believe that quote was from his grandpa James.
I voted for him BTW. 🙃MrBigBlueLight

They replaced the wings on all the A10's a few years back.
I assume that all the stress put on them not from flying but from that Godzilla pew-pew kinda made that decision necessary.

One of 23 A-29 planes left behind. Is the A-29 the planned replacement for the Warthog?
It looks formidable but not as much fear as F-10 Warthog.

Mac preap... and a Scott tuner.
I mean... if I were that guy (and, given the era, pretty sure it was a guy's), I would've sprung for a 4310, wouldn't you?
In fairness, I think that is a Scott 310E tuna in that installation -- which was/is a pretty darned good component. One of the northern New England gurus has one that he brought over here once. I've gotta say, it is the single best sounding tuner I've heard with my own ears (although I think that his 310E has been tweaked a bit).

Might be an early Empire turntable, the head shell is what I'm basing that on.

I didnt' even look at the tt!
At a quick glance, it's not ringing a bell (even as an Empire). You may well be right!
Speaking of Empires (and, of course, other tts so equipped) -- I love those dynamically balanced arms. You know, if one ever gets a shot at going to the International Space Station... and if one just doesn't want to leave analog behind.

EDIT: Derp. It says right in the text that it's an R-O-K.
That conical arm rest reminds me of early 1960s Rek-O-Kuts... but nothing else about that tt really does. The arm isn't makin' me think "Audio Empire" -- although the deck itself has something of the Empire look about it, for sure.
EDIT^2: PS, with those two Crown decks on top, that roll-around looks a wee bit top-heavy, don't you think?

I'll see your Thorens changer & raise you a Fisher/Lincoln!
There are YT videos of both the Thorens and the Lincoln in operation -- a sight to behold.
