Would like to drop some pictures here from my dad's scrap book. The boat photos are from the Rhine River Crossing.

Scan 6 is NOT CPT Daniel. The Wade-Daniel photo is LTC Wallace Wade with CPT Daniel. LTC Wade coached football at the University of Alabama until 1927-Daniel was on his scrub team. That is the same Wade that went to Duke University and coached and they named their stadium after him.

Well holy cow, someone has been a busy little bee. These are fantastic and so many photos of various bridges. Tremendous. I just began looking and maybe only got half way through at the moment. Have a lot of perusing to do later this week. Thanks, thanks, thanks!

Must have missed this topic. Great pictures! I plan on doing some sort of "engineering" in a 1/35 scale diorama and pictures like this always help. Of course, trying to depict bridges, etc. in scale requires a lot of engineering as well. One that I've always wanted to do but thought would be extremely difficult to pull of would be the "tank fell through the bridge" scene.

Lee has gotten back to modeling, speaking of that! It has been many, many years, but now that we have a hobby room, he has some place to work. He is really enjoying it and obviously has not lost his artistic touch.
