I found it interesting that while the German Chancellor was meeting with Trump yesterday he brought up DDay and was appreciative of the U. S. and other Allies for liberating Germany from the Nazis. 

Thanks Allan, I said a prayer this morningg for the ones we lost this morning 81 years ago today. 

I'd like to bring this back up as we remember the 81st anniversary of that Day of Days....

I realize that this is an old topic. One of the individuals in the pictures posted by Bobgee, I believe, is of my grandfather who was a M. Sgt. in the 212. I'm wondering if anyone knows the source of those photographs. 

Hello! My name is Mariusz. I live (and was born) in Poland. I'm 41, ex polish soldier. I decided to join this forum because i look for information for my book i am currently writing about paratroopers. Either British and American. Currently i have 200 pages written but stuck after Market Garden operation. I don't want to copy a book of Stephen Ambrose (it makes no sense), that is why i am writing about other regiments as well.   I hope this would not be considered as spam, but if you want to help me finishing this book i am "collecting" money for NARA (National Archives and Records Administration) documents about 82nd and 101st Airborne. Just need "a few bucks" to get 500 pages of not published scans from NARA. Read more here:   https://www.reddit.com/r/BandofBrothers/comments/1l0891e/anyone_wants_to_support_for_buying_scans_of_after/   If you have some letters and memories of your ancestors who fought in Europe in 1944 or/and 1945 i'd be happy to use it!

Nice! I haven’t tried that yet,  I usually do foam and carve it out of the foam and then prime it and spray, and then touch up with some brush work. Or I do the same thing with a clay model and the chip it off because it has naturally realistic breaking affect and is basically just concrete or rock, or brick. Love the model and I appreciate your attention to detail!

Yah, I’ll ask him,you very well may be right in it’s an older version of the PT ribbon, I’ll ask him today 👍
