OPERATION OVERLORD- 70th Anniversary Group Build

Yeah, and we’ve filled four pages already, lol…

BTW, I jumped with a steel pot on m’ head at Ft Benning, aged all of 17 years… And many times later on at Bragg, lol… I served eight years in before I ever jumped with a K-Pot, lol…

When I cracked my public storage to move it I found my DUKW. Now mind you I hadn’t been in there in about 2 years but I opened it up and found the hull sides have been glued to the bottom but nothing else done to it. Does that disqualify it because it’s been started or is it still good to go for this GB?

Good to Go…

Still remember your roster number? I do from there and OSUT… Yikes!

I like this one, I’ve been wanting to do a US Tank Destroyer. My uncle was in one through the entire European Campaign, and won a Silver Star for his role in the attack on the Bridge at Remagen. Does this fit in here?

~bump~

Anybody heard from von Hammer recently??

I think he was capture behind enemy lines out of uniform (mit einer jungen Frau!) and thought to be a spy! [;)]

btw, I’m with a …

he hasn’t posted since the start of Dec, and his posting was going down before then. I hope he wasn’t put off by the little spat a while back. Would be a shame to lose him.

I do recall that he was pretty busy with real life, both home and work at the time. I do hope that all is well with him. He did PM with me a bit at the time of the meltdown, but not since then. I did not get the impression that he was leaving like some did.

Maybe the REAL Mafia made a move on the kingpin of the Monogram Mafia… Have Monogram kits suddenly gotten harder to find???

Wow! I missed something…a meltdown? I heard Manny got booted but didnt hear anything else happened. I agree Stik, he was super busy remodeling homes or something like that...12 hrs/ 7 days a week. Thats enough to put the kibosh on a lot of extra-caricular activities…[|-)]

Lets just say it got real tense around here, and the forum is only slowly returning to pre existing levels of activities. But on the good side, some new talent has shown up.

I missed it too, I was wondering why it was so quiet.

You guys should be happy, it blew up over a weekend and I read though some of it but stayed out of it. Crazy stuff…

I always miss the excitement…where, what and when…?..got my curiosity up now…

…I think most of the fighting threads got deleted, not just locked. But the griping threads are a ways back in the Armor forum, you’ll get the idea of what happened. …the titles say something like “this forum is slow”…

Sorry I already asked to get in on this one. Like they say the mind is the first thing to go [:S]

I still hope this GB kicks goes through, any volunteers to take it over?

I wouldn’t right off Hans just yet. He was on the site the other day, so he is still around. Maybe he just didn’t want to get involved in all this stuff, which to be honest is all old news.
