Italian campaign
Richie, here's a nice shot of an Italian campaign 3" mortar carrier in your colour scheme, note the ingenious way of carrying a spare wheel, 'mortar tube bracket', nice detailed character picture.

I had an idea about a boat race involving carriers and tracks... Two man teams per carrier... Tracks broken and withdrawn from the vehicle... Last team to fit the tracks gets a penalty.
However Sbi have just torn a muscle in my back , I can no longer put up a reasonable standard or competition ! Kev I have never seen that image before, excellent quality ! If the carrier was displaying that scheme, the chances are it came in via Bizzerta and perhaps had a stint on Op Husky.

Well got the carrier back yesterday so decided to start to fit the antenna bracket base.
This year will hopefully be one for the detail stuff , I still have to fabricate the radio battery box, the gunners seat, and a number of bins etc etc. Then I can get the radio and intercom kit fitted. !
