I have this book and also have both the Luftwaffe books in this series - very nice reference books.
Am currently waiting on some nasty ss bod books 
if youd have said tuesday you could have had my old copy. I somehow managed to get 3 copys of the same eddition of it.
Is your old one worth some shoulderboards and a few quid??
You've got nothing to ein, zwei, drei, vier
Couple of other things i forgot to list 
:
M40 helmet, in texturised RAL6006 with decal, which has been dirtied up and lightly aged a bit - which i've just finished:
6 Czech PT25 Field telephones i've bought and got working.

When we were an Empire it was run by an Empress
Now we're a country we're run by a..........
I can't believe you've camo'd your filing cabinet! 
LOL, i have three of them full of kit. It was camo'd just because it was the nearest thing that i could spraypaint when i was trying out some new stencils.

Do you ever bang into them, cos you can't see 'em?

Loved the joke -
This is not a criticism, but reading about you guys and all the kit you seem to be buying, it strikes me this is almost a way of life not just a hobby. Hang on a mo, is that coming across as a wee bit naive - 
My wife's already having a go and asking whether I need any more kit and I haven't even got started yet -
Roll on the next pay cheque - 
No, honestly, I have stopped buying kit now..... unless someone brings out a decent MP44....

Well, I look at it this way. With the kit i've bought for BotB, Arnhem and now CR, i'm sorted for anything thats done in the future...
Well, thats the theory anyway!

My thoughts also - I've got early &/or late FJ 'impression' just waiting in the wings to be worn, as well as additional hohenstaufen kit and a multitude of weapons.
still thinking about the CA HK33/china clone - '44 conversion unless something 'else' comes out - a nice affordable MG34/42 would be nice
nah, you're never done buying kit-tis true I tellsya. You find that after a while a jacket looks rather worn and threadbare so thats a new one needed, or hmmm I fancy a change and lo and behold a new list of kit is created-tis like wargaming in that aspect. (I have a rather large lead mountain-ACW figures, Napoleonics-better half of a corps, ww2 paras, and a whole heap of Medievals)

Jay, you're a kit monster as much as anyone, so I doubt that'll be the end of it.
Oh, updated arrivals now include lid cover, smock and hat. Just need a belt and braces for the jump trousers, and the rest of my web gear.

"Truth is a shining goddess, always veiled, always distant, never wholly approachable, but worthy of all the devotion of which the human spirit is capable. "
