    The posters are nice, but upon looking at the details they look lie copies to me I'm afraid

    I never know how true it is but in Greece 1941 Panzermeyer claims that in the middle of the British firing he knew they would end dead in the end and threw a grenade between of them making them assault the enemey and run away from the grenade i.e. potato smasher I guess...

    Been looking for a nice 8th AAF patch. Recently found three, two in very good condition. One looks to be real, not sure about the other two but was assured they came from an 8th AAF Vet. Found a mix of various patches a week before this find. Have yet to do a blacklight test, but they look to be old.
