Thumbs up Nice Review of Sentinel ...

First published review I've seen, and he is quite complimentary.

Default No surprise ...

Adrian,

Thank you for the positive comments. I hope you are enjoying reading it. There should have been no surprise that you were acknowledged ... you were very generous in answering my questions on the 17-pdr in the Firefly which helped in my understanding of the connection between the earlier 17-pdr mounting in the Aust Cruiser tank and the later British development that resulted in the Firefly. Always try and give credit where credit is due.
Mike

Hello Mike, received your book yesterday and what a great read. As one of the privileged restorers at the Tank museum Puckapunyal working on our Sentinel for the last 2 years, your publication makes perfect sense and is very informative.

Thanks again.

Cheers,

Dave.

Thanks Dave, and you may have noticed you are 'one up' on John and Peter - you got your mug in there twice!! Bragging rights, perhaps?

Yep, bragging indeed but to be fair "Bushy" got honourably mentioned twice also. Have utilized your publication already in identifying locations of attachments to the hull. Just a fabulous resource for we restorers of the Sentinel.

Well done again mate.

Cheers,

Dave.
