I know what you mean about how little incidents like the pelisses can be de-motivational. I have just completed 2nd hussars and found that the GMB flag I had attached to them had been eaten away by the PVA glue and the sabretache transfers I had ordered for them were incorrect, both of which put me on a bit of a downward spiral with them.Lawrence Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11626386564817082992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4809892888059311958.post-81685818592169406462021-03-07T05:29:26.099+13:002021-03-07T05:29:26.099+13:00First class paintjob for a first class cavalry...B...First class paintjob for a first class cavalry...Bravo!Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08913029478686087197noreply@blogger.com
