A Bridge Too Far novel

 Cornelius


Ryan's book is picked up from the Atlantic Canada Aviation museum gift shop for .40 cents! I'll get a shot of it shortly.

Victory over Japan 1945-2025

 80 years since that destructive war finished.

After living in Japan, I still find it frustrating that they view themselves as victims due to the Atomic bombing. 

Official expressions of remorse but not sorry have been expressed.

At least there has been Peace between former combatants.

More Canadian Infantry

 Heller produced a set of British Infantry for WW2 which is a bit different.  It's like they took poses from the old Esci/Italeri kit and mixed them in with Ceaser Minatures. 

Now recently, a local museum has asked me to produce a vignette for a railway display for 1940s. This particular set has suitable figures that I can paint up and set up as troops of the West Nova Scotia Regiment and have them ready to board a train for Pier 21 in Halifax to go over to England.

I have to paint and base these figures which I shall do according to the Battlefront Minatures cards. I have several units which have token representations but should be established as more full out squads/platoons

Pictures to follow
