The customary apologies if this is old stuff, but this is a rather interesting organisation. Lots of Great War footage. I don't think I've seen the film of training on the dummy FTs before, and there's what looks like film of Patton. The last scene is one that would probably not receive official approv...
I have been toying with the idea of approaching an etching company to make parts for the British tanks available in Braille scale. ?(Even the rather good Master Box offerings are not perfect). ?I was thinking of: pistol port covers, grousers, replacement rear stowage box (Mk IV), flaps for secondar...

I'm working on building the Airfix Mark II at the moment, and I've got the new Masterbox Mark I on the bench; are there any good small scale infantry figures out there, ideally in casual poses rather than in action, which I can use with them?? When I built the Emhar Mark IV I found some figures in their set w...
Just been re-reading Camp Colt to Desert Storm: The History of U.S. Armored Forces. The Great War part is mostly chunks of Treat 'Em Rough! by Dale Wilson. At the moment I can't get hold of my copy of the latter, so I'm not sure whether the chapter is transplanted wholesale or whether parts of it are rewri...
I had only ever seen until recently one photo of a Russian 305-mm howitzer built in 1915, which depicted it in the factory with a flat shield at the front of the mounting. A week or so ago, I stumbled across loads of material online, including the fact that it still exists and is exhibited in Russia! There...
