Awesome P-38! I love the pictures of the tank with the covers of the comics! Was that the Unknown Soldier? Thanks for the whole WIP, it was a pleasure to watch come together.

Hey P38';

You are absolutely right; what a great blast from the past and walk down Memory Lane!!  'The last mystery touch: I got stumped......How could we ever forget the big Confederate flag, flying from the radio antennae?  I'm still waiting to see if you add the spectre of JEB Stuart, as he renders sage advice on warfighting from a cavalryman's perspective.....it seemed that no matter what advice he got, JEB always ended up in the thick of things, fighting his own Yellow Tavern, but always making it through, somehow, to live on in the next issue.......

Thanks for the memories!!!  

2022 New Year's Resolution:  Enter 1 group build and COMPLETE a build this year!!  Why Photobucket did you rob me of my one Group Build Badge???  Must be part of the strong anti-Monogram cartel!!!
