Need Light Gull grey, and Afrika Corps Yellow!

Also, silver, steel, copper, and other gloss colors normally found on Modern aircraft (black, red, green)

Transparent blue and red

Brushes and glue tips

Thanks guys, I appreciate any help, and my address to send it to!

Thanks Dave. I also may have brought in a new member once he signs up. He's an Army Major that is part of the club here at Bagram. He's been looking for the resin engine and transmission set for the M2 bradley, so I told him about the Big A and he said he would check it out once he gets reliable internet on R&R.

AJ,
Is the club there in Bagram that Dave Roof and some other started a while back not there anymore.

I use to work with SSG Roof when he was stationed in Ft. Worth.

Anyways, I no that the club had or has an open account at Squadron Mail Order, and tons of people was or still is donating stuff to the club there.

Over on Hyper Scale, was all the low down on the club including what you can send and where to send it to.

While Dave is trying to get you a care package to gether for ya, I'll do some checking around since it might be hard for you to get on the net daily.

What do you like to model. The reason I ask is becuase I might have a kit or two I am willing to part with and wouldn't mind sending it to one of my fellow NCO's.

Here is the the article that ran in October 2005 Finescale Modeler that had updated information on the clubs overseas.

Pete, the club is still there, but it is run by a Major Ross. There really isn't much building done at the meetings, just pick up what model you want to build and away you go.

according to the article the club has one, but I don't remember the major mentioning it.

Pete; I like to model US and british armor and aircraft from WWII to now

thanks

AJ,
I'm on the phone right know sarching for a Christn=mas gift for my girlfriend. As soon as I get off the the phone, I will call Squadron and see if they still have that account open and what you have to do to order if it is.

I'll check what I have at home as far as kits are concerned. Anything to help out a fellow soldier.

Be back shortly!

AJ,
Even though I'm not there with you right now, I still got SIX covered!!!!!!!!!!!

Just got off the phone with Chuck at Sqaudron. You all (THE BAGRAM CLUB) do have an open account with them. Let the MAJ know next time you see him. Go to there sight and e-mail them instead of placing an order through the order service and they will square you away. But it defianetly has to be shipped to the APO cause that how they verify it's really you all.

I'm still gonna look through my stash for ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!
