Greetings,
I am an ex-aircraft modeler turned treadhead. What can I say? Tanks are where it's at.
Yes, just a bit over 50 and have gray hair to boot, (of what is left). Wife actually calls me Mark.
Greetings to all of you!

Welcome, I am the resident "stuff" owner. I've got a fairly extensive modern US motor pool close at hand. I've just started my last year of being "thirtysomething" myself.

Greetings, Mark, and welcome to the site. Well, over 50 means your interest is 1/35 armor and 1/48 aircraft. Oh for the days you could see 1/72 parts without the magnifier

Hello and welcome! What's the big deal about gray hair? I'm 31 and have a few, but that hasn't slowed me down (much). Enjoy the site!
