    Well Paul, we certainly can't say that you're not getting a lot of mileage with your tongue and cheek comments concerning the treatment of deer in your dioramas. Another nice looking arrangement of figures and vehicles as always. Mike

    Thank you Robin, and I didn't even need to use a hammer 😉. I am very impressed with all these figures. Last month I put together a DDay display, and this month this Battle of the Bulge display. Next month I am thinking about doing a Vietnam War display. Mike
