I think you'll find that's "aaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh".

So Dien Bien Phu is a step closer.

How long before it's in the shops, Oh great and powerful Darker Lord?

I've always liked the Chaffee.  Last one I saw was in Vienna in September.

One of my favourites...watched 'The Bridge at Remagen' countless times as a kid...overjoyed when Matchbox brought one out in 1/76. Horrified when I found out that the real tanks in the fight were Shermans! lol.
Ps: a similar scenario to the film can make for a very good game...so long as the Germans cannot possibly blow the bridge until very late!

Chaffees for Shermans also in Battle of the Bulge(?). And I think there was some other film (set in the desert) where a chaffee was used as Panzer III(?)


[btw liked the toffee gag, Leman]
[and fsn, so glad the Dark Lord spared you - but thanks for thinking about me anyway* ]


* Centurion Bridge Layer sounds alright to me, Dave

Probably Patton. It's a long time since I've seen it, but I'm sure the German tanks of the Afrika Korps were actually US machines from the 50's or 60's.

The King Tigers in Battle Of The Bulge were also US machines - either M41 or M47, I think.
