It's decent, but my scope for hobbying about is now extraordinarily limited due to job and family changes (new additions to each :D), not to mention the pandemic excitement of the last year. So my keeping any eye on the Forum has been limited :D

You're cracking on tho, I see :D

Looking good. And I just wanted to say, they seem to have a very good supply officer, as he managed to sneak in a light tank without it appearing on the TOE! Did he perhaps work on a pink sub before being transferred to this outfit?
Water is indeed the essential ingredient of life, because without water you can't make coffee!

TP - Congratulations on the addition, but sorry you don't have much time. I'm still doing what I can ;)

Olden - No pink subs, but the Marines are notorious scroungers ;)

V/R,
Jack

Ta :)

That's some quite heavy duty scrounging!

Maybe there's a bank full of gold somewhere behind enemy lines, and they've managed to find an odd ball of a tank crew to help them get there?

Not much chance to find the cheese and wine and baguettes to have whilst the tanks fixed after it breaks down, tho!

Although Crapgames mortars might have an element of naval gunfire to replace that ;)

Lovely work.  Makes me want to watch "Sands of Iwo Jima" again.

Grr!

The mortar commander was called Mulligan (and was played by Telly Savalas's brother who was visiting the set for a day).
