Actually it comes from a Middle English term to load your truckle with vegetables for market! Apologies if I’m being overly pedantic - the bane of a retired English teacher!

As a farm kid I always find it strange when farms are fenced in by chain link - in my day that would have been far too fancy and expensive for us. Three strands of barbed wire was about all we could do to keep up and maintained. Chicken wire at the bottom when keeping pests out was especially important. When I see chain link farm fences, I say "luxury!"

This is done to prevent people helping themselves to produce as a popular walking and cycling trail sits right next to the field. All the orange groves in the area have also been chain-link fenced for the same reason. Visually the fencing is less than attractive!

Me neither. Either a dialectical or idiolectical usage. I like it though. An expression that sounds like one thing while it's another altogether.

Thanks, Ray. I love learning new words, and your 'definition' is infinitely superior to the ones from the web.

My father was with the 82nd Airborne during Operation Market Garden, among others. He was wounded, shot in the arm, during the Battle of the Bulge. That wound would bother him his entire life. He passed away in 2016, at 90 years old.

We were camped down at Southern end of the John S. Thompson Bridge near Grave, named after Lt Thompson and the 15 men of the 504th, 82nd Airborne who captured it with a surprise attack at the start of Market-Garden. This was "Bridge 11" in the Operation.
I participated in this Living History event last weekend as a US Army cameraman.

Geez, and I thought I was old ...
.And good for you. I very much appreciate all those who gave up so much that the world could have peace.
