speedodad joins a battery
« on: January 03, 2012, 09:53:59 »
maybe historically inaccurate....I know its hard work setting up gun emplacements but I'm wondering if they ever worked without shirts on :P havent seen any illustrations/photos to support this :-[

Ah, a mortar battery, and nicely presented, too, cheng.  And I'm pretty sure that they did work without shirts when the weather was hot and then officer in charge wasn't a martinet.

The red artillery cap is a nice touch of detail we expect of cheng the master.   :wow:

Thanks everyone!

(I couldnt find a photo of Jean Martinet (died 1672) but only this)

cheng:
 :cheerlead:A wonderful scene as usual! Like the scarf on Mr. Bare Chest.
Seems all they changed on the new speedodad in the 6224 beach family set is that the swimsuit is black now and he has blonde shaggy hair made for a hat. No extra muscles yet!
