OK... There have been no updates on this one for three days.  All these teasers and then leave us hanging (sounds like a high school date)  !

 

Hopefully Mark will give us another tease or better yet, tell us what the new release is!  The bomber nose art aspect has me anticipating something special!

Mark,

If my memory is correct,  and the story is true,  then you might be running afoul of the ghost of Elenor Roosevelt with the aircraft artwork.  If the story is true it was Elenor who, upon first seeing the aircraft artwork said it was crude and as a result, the artwork was banned hence forth!

Just saying!

Some years ago I bought a big, thick book with hundreds of photos in color of the 8th Air Force in WW II. Lots of original nose art. A lot cruder in both ways than what they show today. They used gasoline to thin the paint. Finally the crews were made to put clothes on the girls. The  further forward a unit was, the more they could get away with. It seems, in any military, the big shots and rear echelon commandos don't want get too close to the enemy. there were exceptions but I don't think Eleanor was one. We should have sent her to the Germans-scare them to death. But I am betting the pin ups have nothing to do with the Menards new item. He is toying with you !!
