..In Sunny Italy

Just a quick teaser for future posts :  the other day my 'D-Day Dodgers' WW2 forces saw their first action.  For some of the troops, the first time in 40+ years!  More to come later, but for the moment here's a glimpse of the attempt to  liberate Monte Lucedelsole,  Portable Wargame style..

Somewhere in Italy, 1943 or 44..

I hope they have a pleasing old-school look. I like them, at least! 
Next time, some more 7YW rule choices. Meanwhile,  keep safe and well.

      Thanks, I am happy to oblige. I ran out of time and had to pack away (also a nostalgic experience!) but noted all positions and will resume when convenient..
