Cheers chaps, much appreciated.

I finished the bases on the rest, ended up with 3 x 5 man patrols, one M-60 bloke I'll add to the SOG team, and the other four reassigned to the box of apathy awaiting attack with razor saw... eventually.

The dog’s bollocks the lot of ‘em.  :-* Just remember, there were 6 and more man patrols at times so any spares……
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Thanks guys.

Had a rummage through the pile of shame and retrieved this lot of spares.



Think it's time for another M113.

Those 5-man patrols look great!  And "So far, so good..." on those 60 gunners...

I may have gone a bit OTT with the crud on the front gun shield, but that shouldn't be too hard to sort out.

Cool, in that case I'll leave it alone.
