Thanks Frank. I've looked into your history and you are a great modeller yourself so coming from you that is a compliment that I appreciate.
Now Mike I notice you were in Artillery corp. In 1970 when I was based at the Australian task force at Nui Dat (small hill) the Americans had a couple of big guns in the centre and every second or third night they would fire a couple of rounds 10 miles into Nth Vietnam. You would be in your hoochie asleep and all of a sudden Boom! are we under attack? No it's just those crazy yanks firing their big guns.
The guns had a type of bulldozer blade on the rear dug into the dirt to absorb the recoil and were on tracks. Roo.
