Re: Red Star,1725896,Mortar platoon Leader
Hi Tommy, I have struck out four times now. One service record could not be found and the other 3 were sans photo. Now you know why I have never been in a bookmakers in all my life :D
Still got a few more research targets to go at. Cheers, Ade.

Re: Red Star,1725896,Mortar platoon Leader
I've found that the more focused you become on finding something the more frustrating it becomes and the lesser the chance of accomplishing the mission. With a rather laissez faire attitude to collecting I've managed to obtain items I'd never imagine could exist let alone put away in the collection.
