Another one. Another point of interest for me is in the comments section, where someone speculates whether or not the Churchill might have been more suited to the narrow roads and hills of Korea.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Didn't spot these until now. Must have a look.

Here's a change of century. What a lovely ship (wouldn't like to have served in her though!) ...

I do not need another project ... however.

Drachinifel is a YouTube channel which describes in 5 minute videos ships of WWI and WWII. I have always shied away from WWI Naval 'cos I found the terminology confusing ... buuut I have watched quite a few of these little videos and am getting the hang of it.  :(

Slow motion 76mm and 152mm shells.

Interesting to see how the shell travels.

"Looks like a giant bullet." D'uh!  =)
Also, you don't stand so close to a firing tank gun - lucky it wasn't the 120mm pieces fitted to today's MBTs.
