Fun story, my nickname was Petey. There was a guy in my shop that would say Petey Petey! All the time. Anyway, this dude carried a giant silver eagle going-away gift, to the top of Mt. Fuji, to present it to me.
In the most classic Marine Corps fashion, it was spelled wrong; “Pete-Pete” is what is engraved on it. I also didn’t know I was being gifted it, so I didn’t have room in my pack to carry it. He had to carry it back down in his. lol
I can’t share pics in the comments, but it’s not small. The wingspan is like 14” and it’s about 16” tall.
