Hi all
Great memories! Learnt all the German I know from them...Charlie Bourne...Johnny Red(complete with Russki sidekicks).....Lord Peter Flint(who was grazed along the side of his head by a whole armoury of Luger bullets but never even tossed his hair!) and his porn-name enemy, Karl Schafft.Some derisible stuff, such as UJJ, the British US Marine, who absolutely refused to hand over his .303 for an M1 yet always managed to find a supply of rounds for it and who had an Irish sidekick from Central Casting called O'Bannion(who probably became a cop in Chicago after the war!)......German tanks were always blown up in the nick of time,too..........Flashheart, the fighter was either a Martin-baker mk 5 or a mix of Arsenal VG33 meets D520 meets Macchi 205.He was forever getting into compressibility and just managing to pull out by a foot or two!
Great fun!
regards
