Recruitment Campaign - A Little Drabble Do Ya! - July 18th

“I knew we would end up looking ridiculous,” Illya complained, “I am pleased that this Section 2 recruitment campaign is internal. I would not want the general public seeing this.”

“What’s wrong with it?” Napoleon asked. “I think I look quite dashing.”

“You look like you need a weapons refresher,” Illya told him. “You have your finger on the trigger and the gun pointing at my face.”

“It wasn’t loaded,” Solo responded sulkily, knowing Illya’s point was valid. “Maybe you are right though. We don’t want to give the wrong impression. Come on then, let’s get some new pictures done.”

You're two for two on your drabbles! I've always cringed when seeing photos with their fingers on the triggers. David would have known better as he was in the military...then again who knows how they told him, and Robert how to pose.

Thank you :-)

Robert did it a lot more, but I've seen one or two pictures in which David has his finger on the trigger. Like you say, they were probably told to pose a certain way.

Well thought! And well written, too. Thanks for sharing.

Keen observation. I don't think RV had a clue about handling weapons. When he fires a gun his hand and arm go up and down like a Vegas slot machine. Someone should have corrected him, but it shows up in a lot of older tv and films.

RV often looked as though he was throwing the bullets out of the gun
