| The Constable |
 Recall the shootout on the bridge between the bootlegers and the Untouchables and the Mounties? That was shot on an old steel bridge over the Missouri River south of Cascade, Montana. This was taken the last day the crew was on scene. I was working, stopped down to say goodby and was able to get into one of the photos. Thought that any of you who caught the movie tonight on AMC would find a MT Highway Trooper with the "Untouchables" of interest. As this all took part in my patrol area I was involved with the road closures, etc. So I was there quite a lot over the month they shot on scene. I spoke with Connery, and the rest of them quite a lot. He often refered to me as "the Constable'. A name that a few of the other Troopers picked up and it took me ten yrs before they all finally forgot it. FN in MT 10-19-2016 Added a few more new photos on page 7.This message has been edited.

It WAS like 1987 or 1988! Not quite as bad as the "Porno Star" stache all of us sported in the wild 70's. | |||

Cool. That is one of my "top 50" movies. Kevin Strive to live your life so when you wake up in the morning and your feet hit the floor, the devil says "Oh crap, he's up." | |||

I think you just broke the Awesome Machine. If that were me, I'd have that picture hanging in every room in my house. My tombstone would just be a giant blowup of that picture with an arrow pointing at me and a caption that said, "That's how he rolled." Seriously cool picture. J Rak Chazak Amats | |||

That's really cool. Good flick too. "But, as luck would have it, he stood up. He caught that chunk of lead." Gunnery Sergeant Carlos Hathcock "If there's one thing this last week has taught me, it's better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it." Clarence Worley | |||

Please. Before you all go getting carried away, I will just point out that FN in MT is actually Frank Nitti in MT. He's mobbed up! That's how he got into that photo! I mean, Nitti had a mustache sometimes....  I remember seeing that movie....I thought it was damn entertaining. NRA Basic Pistol Instructor NRA Range Safety Officer | |||
