Lord Raglan
 Love your first photo.
That could be me in 1972.
Spend a couple of months in a Landing team off the coast.
I was an enlisted FO.
In fact the 0846 of Marine 0846 is the MOS for my job.

Good olde China

I have 8 peices done at the moment with another 10 in the pipeline, plus two very large jungle covered high ground peices, I should be in a position to post some photos on the weekend mate 👍

French and Vietnamese Paratroopers in Indochina. As the wargames table was clear this evening, I couldn't resist getting some of the "freshly grown" jungle scenery on the table and doing a couple of group shots.

Love me some French Indochina war figs. They look great.
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.
