Nice units
A very interesting documentary on BBC2 on Friday about Aden inspired me to make some Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders from 1967.Attached Files"You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye Who cheer when soldier lads march by, Sneak home and pray you'll never know The hell where youth and laughter go." -- Siegfried Sassoon, 'Suicide in the Trenches'

Well, after a few hours spent reading up on misrepresentation and non-disclosure in insurance, there's nothing better than a few unit mods

Good work!
I am making units too, in an attempt to avoid a horrible university essay on virtual reality!

Good for me that is all behind me.
Now I have to do 'em all week...
Skeptics should forego any thought of convincing the unconvinced that we hold the torch of truth illuminating the darkness. A more modest, realistic, and achievable goal is to encourage the idea that one may be mistaken. Doubt is humbling and constructive; it leads to rational thought in weighing alternatives and fully reexamining options, and it opens unlimited vistas.

Some Brits from the Malayan or Kenyan Emergencies...

Quite sure that some British units did evaluate the SLR during the Malayan Emergency during the early 1950s, I have a photograph.
By the way, have you read "A Face Like a Chicken's Backside" by JP Cross? Great book about the Emergency

Terribly sorry about that chum, I always thought that ACK! was a yank way of showing hostility as in that comic strip "Cathy"...

I'll make a copy of the Malaysian infantry with Lee Enfleid rifles, as I think the SLR wasn't a general weapon in the 1950s.
