An excellent movie.
Enjoyed it.

Would American non combatant be included in the range? IIRC in Ken Burns documentary they stated that only 20% of the troops deployed in Vietnam were combat units. Some ambassy personnels, MPs and "not-CIA" types would be fun  :D

That's excellent, looks like I'll be adding Aussies.
Was there any doubt?

Just reading Bob Grandin's book 'Danger Close'.

This is worth watching; Battle of Long Tan Documentary.

Eventually got hold of a copy of the Long Tan film yesterday so thanks to Bekky for that 😉

Empress are about to release there 28mm early Nam ANZACS so here are some sculpting previews to get you ready.

Jeez mate, that's a bloody ripper. Strewth. Looks a bit committed for 'The Odd Angry Shot' :)

Thanks guys. Glad you like him. More to come but something different.

We have the first casts back of some vehicles so a preview.

First off the Mighty Mite. it comes with a trailer and crew. Just sorting a problem on the trailer and we need to sculpt the crew.

The vehicle plan is for it to come with the M60 which you can leave off or not. Crew of three. Driver, NCO/Officer, passenger in the back .

I do like it.  Will look great with crew and whatever stowage can be fit in.
