British eighth army (1 Viewer)

[h.hammer]

Among all the hoopla as to what we have,what we dont have and what we will get for the 8th in in 2007 i have a minor suggestion.Since we dont have much armor at present(besides the Matilda),i have included in my display a couple of Grants and and an early model Sherman.I have replaced the U.S. tank figures on one of the Grants with the British tank figures from the Chuchill.They fit quite well and by intermixing some standing americans and brits around the tanks it gives the illusion of the tansfer of these vehicles to thr British 8TH army "in the nick of time".
With due respect for all the brave English and Commonwealth troops i hardly think we are mising any giants in not having any Valentines or Crusaders.As for Mr. G's legendary Italian eqipment in the desert,the less said the better.
