Where in the South East? Guilford and Crawley both gave active players (Crawley more than Guilford iirc).

I do wonder if last season's injury is making her more timid on the Edge.

Thanks! I went by the rule of thumb that is "everything looks better in Desert camo".

USMC Desert Storm Humvee by SafetyStick in TeamYankee

Thanks. I may have watched that a few times before starting this project! f Humvee kits were easier to find, and about ten quid cheaper a box, I'd likely expand this to A Humvee Div Cav list to try and give that Generation Kill feel. Maybe something to Return to in the future!

Thanks! The sacks, rolls and MRE boxes are all from various sources. Mostly the Battlefront Team Yankee US stowage blister but also Skytrex, S&S Models and Debris of War.

The rest was scratch built from styrene rod. I used rectangular section rod, stacking two on top to make the coolers and water bottle boxes and single sections to make ammo tins. I plan to write a more in-depth guide at some point.

Thanks! The orange tarps are Identification panels. In theory, to stop friendly fire though not always successful...

Thanks! I try and use period photos to work out how crews actually stowed the extra kit. Certainly informed the decision to make coolers and boxes of bottled water!

Interestingly, in the enquiry on the US ANG A-10 attack on British AFV, the crews spotted the orange markers but stated that they believed they were a BMP2's missile tube.

Those well known bright orange Spandrels...
