Congrats Dave. The Brit bloke doesn't look to enamoured. Lol. Still hadn't got over the ammo incident where he threw his toys out his pram.

To be fair he did publicly apologise to everyone at the briefing on the Sunday, which many would not have done.

I take you mean Monday. I had to leave Sunday evening due to lack of Childcare for the Monday.

Well at least he reined his toys back in. I will give him the credit for that.

Hello lads any photos from Sunday ? Thanks

[karl]

The photo after the first 222 photo. The 3 ss grenadiers, the one in the middle. { please tell me, hes not wearing his helmet on, (back to front) OR do l need to get my eyes checked.

[Hoffman Grink]

No he's not - I had occasion to speak to him and his stahlhelm was the right way round - I have to say though - and this is a general observation not a dig at RGM which Les knows I love and fully support - The standards of dress and accuracy in MANY areas and portrayals are going right through the floorboards.......
