Hi
The french magazine RAIDS has just issued a special OIF issue ("Hors-série n°10 Victoire en Irak") which is really worth a look : 82 pages stuffed with Yves Debay's pics : british AFVs and Land-Rovers, M1A1s, Hummers :-) , LAVs :-) :-) , Amtracs :-) :-) :-) and Iraqi wrecks as well... NO aircraft, NO warships, NO blah ... At last I have found one advantage of being a french modeller
Enjoy
Frenchy

Frenchy,

Do you know if this will be available in the US? Otherwise, I'll be in Edinburgh at the end of June and can have a look there.

Thanks,
Paul

Is there anyone out there who could scan and post the pictures? I am in the cultural wasteland of the US, in the middle of North Central Indiana. I would probably have to go to a bookstore in Chicago to get a copy of the magazine, and Chi Town is four hours away... It would be a big help to some of us.

Thanks in advance,

Shaun

Keenan, give Borders in Chicago a call, they are superb at importing loads of foreign mags and newspapers. When i'm in the states its the only place i can guarantee to find the spanish sports newspapers.... Jim
