Thank you, we have corrected the Asst. Associate of Internal Communications in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The Commonwealth grieves for the transgression. Please accept our apology.

Engineers in new Bradley APCs, in the CoC 1st Div. General comments of the engineers and soldiers are that they like armor, the power, and the speed off road, as compared to the M113.

Some painting finished up this week.

The mangled M60 AVLB was my attempting to removed the bridge from bridge launch mechanism….. I guess I should have quit 20 minutes earlier.

2 M-1 AVLB w/bridges, 4 without; along with M901 and Russian truck in service with the Commonwealth.
I am working on 9 old Cobras (no rotors) also for the Commonwealth.
