why did you opt for that torture Cole?

Hello,

currently I´m reading the new "Visier Special 58: Marineinfanterie".

http://www.visier.de/1721.html

About the naval infantry worldwide: History, equipment, tactics, weapons and a lot of photos. Very useful especially for our hobby!

I think that the "Visier Specials" are the best on the german market (and be sure: I know a lot of german publications.).

If you are living in Germany you should take a view inside at your next shopping.

Best regards

Frank

Ps.: I think that a lot of people believe that the castle in Disneyland is the original instead of "the famos copy" Schloss Neuschwanstein.

Why I should do it? - It´s a masterpiece of paper modeling.

Right now I am in the middle of Charles Spencer's 'Blenheim battle for Europe. I got it as a Christmas gift wasn't sure how he would be as a writer but it is rather good and interesting so I would recommend it, I am also sad to hear that Dick Winters passed away a true hero if there ever was one.
