Xmas in July-
Santa Claus delivered this to my door recently. It is Xmas in July . Now begins the process of mating this bracket to my 1944 hull . The preceding posts are very useful, thanks Michael R and the other Carrier men . Cheers.

I like this one . MKI Carrier . Nice Boys rifle protuding from the front . Nice Bren firing at an incoming airplane with 2 inch mortar firing high elevation in support …….It begs the question : Is the mortarman holding the base of the mortar with one hand ?
