Can anyone supply details on the rockets? mounted on the Sopwith pup?. How they were fired.... what range ?Thank's

A photo of a Hot WC52

Yes its a 1/2 or WC 13 Dodge interesting mounting of a 37mm anti-tank gun . I dont think the chassis would take kindly to the gun actually being fired. There was another simular rig of a 57mm ?? I think , mounted facing the rear with an armour shield on 3/4 ton WC Dodges used as a stop gap

True , very same working conditions They did the jobs that had to be done while the men were being sent to Combat...... were they were not allowed to serve with the exception of Nurses who were of course within miles of the front lines

WAVES Seamen 1st Class Martha Harrison and Lorrain Taylor working on the #1 Pratt & Whitney R-2000 engine of a R5D Skymaster aircraft, Naval Air Station, Oakland, California, United States, mid-1945

Very Nice , so fresh from the Factory , I understand about the cost of doing prints no matter the size when your doing a large number the price is always a problem .

Just found this thread while looking for a thread about "WAVES" Women serving in the Military Very Nice Models have you completed any more since you posted last time?

Great Photo's Tony B how about posting just a few more under each vehicle type ?

a photo of a half track being loaded in Britain for the Normandy invasion

is this the photo you had linked to earlier ? from landings in Italy.

Thank you Pop larkin I wish I could read/ understand more of it by myself but since I dont have the talent to learn French quickly I will depend on the Forum member here that already can . Thanks again for your help.

Great War Truck yes I think your correct , there are more photo's of the mulberry harbours most are bare views nothing but structure.

Yes I agree Rick W that is the usual reason for the duels being used on the front as it makes for very stiff steering so they were used on a limited basis

as far as I know length of the introduction is not limited , Yes Do post any Photograph's you have of your "TOY'S". You were quite right in asking about the correct type of oil in your other posting . With the range of experience and vehicle types I m sure you will have an answer soon .
