    Chevy Chase for Mac we were based out of warhorse for a short while to help out in Baqubah, June/July, then back to Balad Ruz further east. They had a tank battalion, some cav scouts and arty based in Baqubah but wanted some legs so off we went.

    No, different day. Big attack following an ambush, Bradleys (me and mine), Abrams, F16s, Kiowas, and a buttload of ieds and rpgs rolling around! Lost my Bradley and my gunner, great kid, and also our CO. but we dealt more than we took.

    I was medevaced out of Baqubah in 2004, yep the town was full of insurgents! Maybe it was the same day, June 24?

    Just read on FB that Russ Bannock passed this last Saturday, Jan 4. I read it on The People’s Mosquito group. Thought you would want to know. ... at the going down of the sun, we shall remember them.

    Well, I got excited for a moment! When you mentioned the bombs out of the Revell kit I thought I might be able to help you out with some parts but my kit is not the B Mk IV, just the MK IV. No open bomb bay option so strangely enough no internal parts. Just as I thought I’d be able to lay claim...

    There’s a bunch of folk who have been on the receiving end that would agree.

    Good stuff. What range are the cannon synchronized at?

    Great work Terry, looks like she might have spent some time buried at the end of the runway!

    Yep, that’s aggravating alright. I’d be tempted to go back to ensuring that the quality control on the ales and port had been properly conducted!
