Hi, Glenn. I wonder why you are not writing anything about your U-boat. I am very curious how much of it is already done. If you can insert new pictures i will be very happy. Regards,

Thank's Levo, it has been some time since my last post.and I apologize to the group for that. I'm now stationed at Fort Eustis Army base now. range control operations,and me a navy man go figure. We control all live fire training on the post and over see the safety of the combat reaction courses and training site's. I have been doing some modeling but it's for the Army in 1/35 scale and 1/87 scale, armor, trucks, humve's in convoys, so I have not been able to work on my own models,but hope to soon. regards Glenn
