well I need another 3 'really' so I'll have a Waffen SS Tent and a Heer/FJ tent :roll:

One of the very few examples of inter force camo crossover is the use of the other teams zeltbahns in tent building.
In english, the SS used splinter zelts to build tents if they were short and only splinter could be found. Werhmact used SS zelt too but not as often as the other way round. Good few photos of this to back it up, figures in the pictures give a clue as to who's doing the borrowing.
Once you have built and used an 8 section you wont want to go back to 4. :wink:
Once you have built a 16 section an 8 is kind of pokey. :lol:
Once you have built a 24 section you'll not want to do it again. :?

After a 24 zelt tent, i dare say you're fingers are about to drop off. That is one helluva lot of buttons to do up!

With regards to the ACM, is there anything I should know about with regards to battery wiring, grease buildup etc. Have already stripped it and short of a tiny bit in the barrel, no massive amount of the famous Chinese grease.

Seems to be wired up the wrong way around - I had to get a connector reversed.

I wouldn't know the difference. Not very good with AEGs, it's all been gas for me so far. The battery it came with was holding a small charge, enough for me to fire a few rounds off and it seemed to be working fine.

Hi Kav

my 2 thompsons have both come wired the right way round but occasionally all ACM guns come wired the wrong way so check that.

otherwise the main thing is typically the cyma thomspons come with small connectors so maybe worth hacking it off and putting on a large one. otherwise not much else you should do. the two i've had pass through my hands didnt have grease in the barrel or anything. worth giving the barrel a quick swab though

Now you too can look like an Emo kiddie ;) :D

My size 5 Gaiters arrived today as well as a 35th div patch. Not entirely sure the gaiters will fit despite being super huge.

how is it healing? I hope the burns were not severe enough to warrant a graft, i had a large graft done on my thigh (about size of a cd) major hassle having both legs in a cast while the graft took.
hope your hand will be in good order for Dday+2

Haha, no need for a graft. This time...

The hand's fully healed now, just a lovely purply-pink colour to it now. Went back to work right after d-day, wearing a fetching Jacko-esque white cotton glove concealing about a centimetre worth of jelonet(dermatology were out of rhinestones). I'm ready to put my body on the line in the name of freedom come sunday morning. Or saturday, when it'll be on the line in the name of booze!

As long as booze is within reach and fire without, I'm interested!
