Hi all

I finally sorted out what my next project will be (out of millions and millions of ideas)(well actually 5)
And I have a question.
I need some good close-up pictures of the American Paratrooper that got stuck in the Belltower of St. Mere Eglise France during the Invasion.
This will be my next project (also something where I walk around with for a Loooooong time)

I need some pictures of the walls, the windows, the stonecarved edge, the parachute and last but not least the paratrooper John Steele himself

If anybody could help me out on this I would be very pleased.

Thanks in advance

Hi FAUST,

i've got the same idea.
just look on the following site.

www.twenot.nl

by the forum, there you find something about it.
but there are no good pictures to find on the web , i've looked to.

i've got some pictures, not the best , but it is something.
i can send it to you.

Thanks for the link Shermansam
I haven`t been on that site for a long time (since I met Armorama)

Could you be A bit more specific on this forumthread because I couldn`t find it

If you have the same idea we could make it a sort of two man groupbuilt if you are interested
