Sorry to ask this annoying question again, but has anyone spoken with Robert (18Bravo) or dealt with him lately? I noticed I haven't been seeing any comments from him for a while.. and when I checked his profile, I found that his last visit to the forum was on January 11 2016.. Is he on a long vacation, or is he back on the job overseas? Anyone know?

Didn't he get posted overseas? I vaguely remember his mentioning it on a sales post, possibly Missing Lynx.
Might be wrong...

I was just thinking about him the other day.. I was hearing about US special forces working in areas in Iraq.. and inside Syria.. So, I hope he's at least away from any direct danger.

Fairly certain I read in a post a ways back that he was deploying. I'm guessing in his particular line of work, he doesn't have a great deal of time to provide updates on his status.
Hoping he returns safely.

Hello Hisham,
It looks like he may have posted on or about 2016-09-23. He is, with out a doubt, the second best modeler that I have ever met.
I can not say that this would be an issue for him, however, you might ask him about operational security (OPSEC) when speculating on his schedule...and I do mean this in a friendly way.
Respectfully,
Allen

All things considered, it's probably best to just let it go until he shows up on the forums again.

Good to hear from you again, Rob!
There's some new and upcoming USSOCOM figures and vehicles in production now...state-of-the-art in terms of equipment, guns, and gear. Woohoo!

Welcome back Rob - hope all is well. I'm working on a project using some of your walk arounds I purchased a while ago - they're just as helpful now as then!
Hope to see you around again on the forums -
Best regards,
Nick
