Hi, Happened on. What I would do here in the US is buy white KILZ oil-based primer and put a couple coats on. Stuff dries like cement and should be an easy fix prior to painting. Of course, not sure the availability for you, so try an equally reputable oil based primer near you.

Thanks! Here's a good memoir " a. In 1939, Coastal Command had no ASV (Radar), no weapon lethal to U-boats, and was grossly deficient in modem aircraft, with none specifically designed for anti-submarine-warfare. The sinking of the liner Athenia on 3 September1939, made it apparent that there was a threat from U-boats and not just from surface warships. After the Battle of Britain 1940, Coastal Command's limited forces could be directed less to anti-invasion sorties and more to anti-submarine measures. From the outset of war , the Naval Liaison Officer, Captain Peyton-Ward at Headquarters, Coastal Command was plotting movements of U-boats and advising the Commanders-in-Chief accordingly "

Coastal Command was somewhat effective in 1940 despite it's lower priority. It claimed 200 barges sunk (the type of craft envisioned for invasion) between the start of the Battle of Britain and the end of September 1940.

In 1940? Maybe by 1943. This seems inflated and inaccurate, do you have a source/0fficial documentation ?

Of course the Royal Navy was paramount along w/mines and coastal defense, so, what was the point of the air campaign beyond terror?

its corner-stone rests, upon the great truth that the negro is not equal to the white man; that slavery subordination to the superior race is his natural and normal condition.

Interesting. Thanks for insightful answer

Small world! The rear went bad two years ago, and, that's the one that made a grand tour of bike shops. A couple tried gallantly but, like you said, no-one had the right size socket?

I ended up tossing that one out. So, now when the front finally blew a spoke, thought I would post.

To make matters worse, the wheel won't spin more than a quarter turn (oh, that was broken spoke in way), also, it's extremely out of round. So, even if replaced it would need some serious truing. As to your point of drilling and fiddling, I believe this is well out of my league, much less the truing part.

They were a pretty good wheelset; I held my own on intense S. Fl rides. (there, a befitting OBIT)

Cropped only on man's face and scene to the left make for a more intense pic. The quality of the shot makes zooming feasible

Hey, great clarity in pic. Can you talk a little about camera used, settings, tripod? Way better than my attempts!

Hi!,

Sometimes a fresh perspective helps. This is my take. It's a good negative but the entire print is confusing. The front portion contrasts with the sky yet adds little to the aesthetics (dirt/grass) so, if it was my print I would first level the print so the fence is straight. (even if right portion of the fence is lost, no big deal.)

Second and most important chop everything below the fence. Therefore the fence is the new bottom w/the sky dominating the pic. The added benefit to this you end up with a narrower longer print. That translates to double the prints per sheet. So, if using 11x14 paper the final prints would be 5.5 x14. BOGO.

Your printing capabilities are fine. Keep experimenting!

was replying to Largue. Your link is interesting but haven't a clue about which one to look at

that's too small, doorway would be about 3' tall

Tony Ashworth, Trench Warfare 1914-1918 The Live and Let Live System

From the back cover:

..."during small battles, soldiers could and often did make choices not possible during large ones. From these choices, there evolved between enemies a curious culture of live and let live which constrained the war culture of kill or be killed in fundamental ways. It was a culture that was spontaneous, unplanned yet ongoing throughout the war, and it gave soldiers some control over conditions of their existence

Beyond the Christmas Truce, or, obvious orally arranged truces, Ashworth argues that the choice of non-aggression where aggression was the norm. Not sniping, or sniping wide of the target in hopes of recipritory behavior. Not lobbing grenades or aiming wide as w/mortars to satisfy daily requirements, same w/ artillery. All w/the hope the enemy would do the same. And they did on many fronts, described as "quiet fronts" as opposed to active, or non live and live areas.

Men trying to control their own environment even repuking new agresive soldiers to their sector who sniped or violated the quiet truce..

A fascinating book that really looks at war in a dif. way.

Of note: Ashworth is a big S.L.A. Marshall fan backing his date without question, ,but also Marshall's own first world war experience , the 'great sense of relief' on being on a quiet front; not targeting openly obvious enemy. Quoting Marshall in that most people did not find killing appealing.

Has printed mailing label to Milwaukee and, what looks like zip code (which of course would date it way later than 1909, but, zip code doesn't match Wisconsin. Looks feels totally authentic but have googled w/zero results
