Crow's Nest (1992-1994 newsletter) Issues 1 to 5 PDF

[hhbooker2]

"GREETINGS & SALUTATIONS! Between 1992 and 1994 we published the "CROW'S NEST" and gave away free subscriptions which included postage which we ourselves paid so the subscribers would not have to part with their money. We later put the 400-plus pages of graphic art showing sea service rating badges, Marine Corps chevrons, etc., both photographs and drawings were used, did many of the drawings myself 400% larger than actual size based on actual insignia. Enjoy! Respectfully yours, Sarge Booker of Tujunga ([email protected])

JOHN: You are welcome, if you want to see all of the back issues, please do so at: http://www.hawsepipe.blogspot.com/ Ian E. Watts' "Hawse Pipe" website! Be sure to let others know also and if you want free email scans of insignia inculding WWI tank badges, write me at [email protected] and I can send you scans of great Army chevrons for tankers. Would like to TRADE some CDs with you if you would like to do so, John? The alloted space has been limited here, so I cannot add more PDF here nor many graphics now? Good to hear from you, bet you know Hayes Optoupalik in Montana who has WWI tanks and other things? Respectfully yours, Sarge Booker of Tujunga
