TESTING

Still testing

OK, back to the RTR memorial in Whitehall.

 

TESTING

WEll, touch wood and don't speak too soon, I think my pics are only throwing wobblies on the 'Cambrai' thread!

 

either Merlin is having fun or he's just bored to death.

 

Don't you mean he is bored to death AND having fun?

 

Testing

See my 'Cambrai' thread post on 'Pre War Armour', I am having mysterious trouble with my 'Comet Crew Memorial' pics and was testing on a different thread. Pics post here but not on Cambrai.......(You don't have to read em!)
Still not working on 'Cambrai' so try same pic on here. TESTING!!!!

 

Wierd, they're working fine on their for me... :-?

 

testing

I think it's a touch of the supernatural Simon, just posted that tank pic on Cambrai, viewed it, left it, went back, not there! but OK on here!!
The only difference I can see is that there is a 'boxed X' on the right of 'Quote/edit and I can't get rid of it!
It's them RTR blokes, taking the 'P' out of the Cavalry again!! :angry:

 

I laughed so hard when I saw that giving a damn thing.

 

who are RTRs and why do they have five french hats but only one rifle and a single cartrige pouch between them ? ..they must have been very brave and confident fellows indeed ..

 

Royal Tank Regiment

The 'rifle' is actually a Besa mg, as used in most British tanks during WW2.

 

Testing

They actually are a 'Comet' tank crew.

 

Re: TESTING

I have a pair of eyeglasses of that type; I wear them for Civil War reenacting.

 

post

Those glasses were issued to me in 45, then one pair (of two) replaced by German Eye Speciallist POW at Mestre in 46.
One pair I gave away to a John Lennon fan in the Beetle era and the pair shown were returned to me by a family member a couple of weeks ago. They have flat sides for wearing under a gas mask but take it from me it does not work!
Woody, the berets they wear are the original WW2 'Monti' berets, see young Merlin pic.
