So I wore my Bates combat boots (black w/black rubber soles) while doing a half of BJV by myself.
The 2nd time was after I retired from the Air Force. The game was 40 miles from my house. I was working the GV after the GJV. Neither of the JV officials could stick around to work my game. My partner was in the military so I wore his size 11 1/2 Bates combat boots--I wear a 13/14
Thus, I now have spare bag with all the essentials. And that bag does not leave my trunk.
