Something for the weekend, sir?
The theme for this, my latest go is the infamous Falaise Pocket, so called because a large portion of the German Army were trapped after a pincer movement by Allied forces closed the only available route east after D.Day.....Then the fighter bombers and rocket firing Typhoons came in.
I used the 'Bale out' dio. base for this and substituted the smashed Tiger for an Opel Blitz truck. I bought a set of German Grenadiers and a Tiger tank crew, added some more muck and rubble, the contents of the truck and a bucket and just generally messed about with the figures ect. 'till I got it summat like.
I hope you like this 'cos I now have to put the truck back together again!!!

P.S. Two things:- Sorry about the van wheel trims on one picture and more important I didn't realise how many photos I've posted and I don't know how to remove some, apologies from the dinosaur.
