There it is: OIF



What do you think? Are those Special Ops series in full color?

Yes, it will be full color. The other volumes are.

Sounds like it might be good, but the talk about 'yves' sounds like hype.

I think these things are only for the photos. I have one volume and the text is minimal.

I picked this one up last week. It is all color and the pics are nice, mostly USMC stuff, and some British. So far I haven't read all the text, just been enjoying the pics. If anyone has a question about whether or not a specific vehicle is pictured just let me know.

Mike, this time I'm mostly interested in British stuff... LandRovers WMIK and Warriors in particular. Any good photos that we haven't seen on Operation Telic website or somewhere simmilar?

Hi Mario,
The photos here are all "new" from what I can tell. I have not seen them anywhere else. There are 9 pages of British stuff, among them are 6 pics of the Land-Rover "Sabre", there are only 2 of Warriors, and one of those is a small shot. As you might expect there are several (8 or 9) of the Challenger 2, but again they are pics I haven't seen before.

I have the RAIDS issue done by Yves Debay and from what I can see on the Concord website the photos are same. If my local shop has this issue in when I goto the meeting next week I'll compair the two.
