Operation Ironclad
Just finished this book on Operation Ironclad. One of the lesser known campaigns of WWII. I’ve always had an interest. Hope to build some models from the campaign.

The Great War
Over the last few years I’ve found myself more and more interested in WWI. I think it may be all those cool armored cars getting released. If you have an interest in WWI, I can highly recommend this YouTuber series.

Pour one out
Pour one out for a true patriot. A man’s man. The word hero applies in this case. Story here.

The Arsenal of Democracy
If you don’t follow Dave Burge on Twitter, you are missing a treat. (@iowahawkblog) His #DavesCarIDService threads are a treat. He is also a polymath who ends up telling you tons’ of stuff you didn’t know. He also has a Substack where he goes on about old cars. This is a fantastic thread about “1942” model cars and the uses the car plants were put to. Read and enjoy.

I’ve said it before….
I love WWII history. Another story I didn’t know. Also, I have a kit of this aircraft.
