Share your own art here :)
When I first got into WW2 re-enacting in the late 80s, I noticed that nobody had ever done re-enactor cartoons (not decent ones, anyway). A few have done it since, but I'm convinced that I was the very first WW2 re-enactor cartoonist (at least the first with any talent or humor). I did dozens of...- p51

Share your own art here :)
I have a pretty extensive background in art. My more prolific days were in the 90s when I did a lot of military themed catalog and other work. These days I'm more focused on photography and graphics. Here's some more recent stuff: I painted this on a A-2 jacket, from a Disney...- p51

Trains
Where I live, we have a good Amtrak line between Portland and Seattle, but the stations are well in downtown so it's tough to ride there and be able to get elsewhere. As much as I'd like to ride trains more, it's not practical for me as they just don't go where I need to get (or have a station...- p51

WWII US War Correspondent Collection / Impression
WW2 US War Correspondent collection/impression Hello all, just joined this forum, pretty neat stuff! I have a lot of other US 1940s and WW2 stuff, but my War Correspondent collection is something I'm pretty proud of as most people don't collect this. These are only a few photos, as I have a... -
U.S. Army considers new uniforms
Exactly. In my time in the Army, I only wore my Class As for my commissioning ceremony, my DA photo for the Captain's board, for the three death notifications I made to widows who hadn't yet known they were widows (God, how I hate that duty) and THAT'S IT. I wore BDUs all the other times. For...- p51

Typewriters
Here are three from my War Correspondent collection. The Hermes Featherweight was the tough one to find, it's even marked with a rubber stamp for a Army Captain in WW2. It's the standard machine issued to most USMC Correspondents in the war. The Corona is really rare as they made very few in...- p51
