This group is all plastic and includes kits from Matchbox(now Revell), Hasegawa and Esci.. All numbered and stowed and mostly crewed..These were done up for a large Kursk like game and the panzer IVs worked overtime that day.
This posting is for my childhood mate Chris Edwards,the first person I ever knew who talked about Kursk...we must have been 10 at the time

ReplyDelete‘Love your work, Cardinal!
Yes we would have been 10...thumbing through Purnell’s ‘History of WW2’ magazines.
The Panzerkeil –(Panzerwedge) at Kursk.
There is a book: ‘Kursk- The Vital 24 Hours’ that came out some years ago. Quite good but poor maps.
A more recent book (I haven’t got it yet) is written from the Russian point of view and draws on unit histories since the fall of the USSR so is less politically correct and more factual.
It was a damn close run thing...but the German’s never knew how close the Russians came to breaking.’
Cheers,
