Thanks for the welcome.
Actually, Monsterarmor, I was born and raised in Wisconsin, but lived in Georgia (Gwinnett County) before NC, then also a year in Tyler, Texas. The first thing I picked up in the South was "y'all." I thought it sounded better than "youse guys" so I kept it. And, yes, Keyworth--I borrowed the "checkmateking02" from Combat!. It was a favorite show, and when I used to paint WWII 1/35 soldiers, the guy with the Thompson always got a camouflaged helmet like "whiterook" had. I've got tapes of all the episodes, too, from a run on "the Action Channel." Even my two daughters like it.
