Title: Mysteries?
Post by: GrumpyOldMan on 12 March 2011, 11:02:59 PM
Hi

I was wondering if I could be initiated into the mysteries of pictureless codes:-

GR 27 - Pz Char B1 - Am I right in assuming that this is the French Char B1( bis?) skulking in the German WW2 list but missing from the French list?

BR 125 - Naval Crew - Are these in helmet or cap, duffel coat, overalls or jumper and flap, actively crewing or idly standing around? Any hope of any of these in landing party rig? What I'd really like is something like http://www.grantsmilitaria.com/gall/pix/images/10.jpg (http://www.grantsmilitaria.com/gall/pix/images/10.jpg)  :D.

BR 130 - Oerlikon 20mm cannon + naval crew (2) How are the crew dressed?

Cheers

No idea about your question - but the photo captioned as 251 with Puma Turret? is an M3 Honey.

Thanks for the reply, I thought they may be set up as crew for LCTs etc and apparently they are. It looks like the WW1 German East African sailors are going to have to do for a landing party  :).

The Char B1 has now been added to the French section as well.
