I am reminded of one of his many wise quotes...
Thanks for the comments guys and good to see you posting again Kevin-much like you I too have been AWOL for some twelve months. I need to muster the Yank & Reb armies, dust them off and get them on the march again :wink2:

A superb construction of "Fort John Ford". Much like you and a number of other forum members I too am a great fan of Ford's Cavalry Trilogy. So much so that a few years ago whilst in Phoenix, Arizona I took a couple of days time out and a long five hour drive to visit Monument Valley...
He is certainly on my pre-order list. A mounted figure of Gibbon- one hell of a fighting soldier who along with his troops participated in practically every major battle of the Eastern Theatre- will be a fine asset for any number of dios.
Also pre-ordered is the Confederate orderly holding an...
