I traded vehicles with a British patrol one afternoon, and my other guy's driver was scared of their manual- so I got to drive for one afternoon that year! Shifting with my left hand was strange, but the pedals were right where my feet looked for them.

I even found an old pic- Fat Charlie in the desert, taking an afternoon off from helping found ISIS!
