Strongholds! Series No. 1: Radioman, IDF 55th (Reserve) Para Bde - Jerusalem, 1967

Hi guys,

This is the first bash in my series featuring famous 20th century battles for strongholds. The capture of strongholds and the planting of flag by the victors has always been the objective of battles, many times achieved with great sacrifice and bloodshed. Hope u guys like this bash!

































I welcome ideas to bash more battles for strongholds bcos at the moment I can only think of Fallujah & Grozny... Let me know if u guys have any other suggestions!

Another awesome from the great CplHo. I feel loss of words in front of all the bashers on the board. But there is a news of interest to CplHo, India's 60thRepublic Day Parade Which can be seen at the following link

Indian Armed Forces

If you check the Indian Navy Display Picture on this page it features a picture of the INDIAN MARCOS done by CplHo some time ago...

Hi! Great bash. Been trying to find that camo set which i presume is from the Mercenary figure of 21st Century toys. Slim pickings here in the Philippines. On to the topic, have you ever considered doing a Sayeret Golani figure during the Israeli assault on Beaufort Castle in Lebanon in 1982? I'd love to see the outcome of a bash by the great Cpl. Ho on that subject. :-)

Re: Strongholds! Series No. 1: Radioman, IDF 55th (Reserve) Para Bde - Jerusalem, 196

Thanks everyone! You r right about the camo pants, nesher! I've been dyeing it green several times to reduce it's 'yellowness' to resemble the 'greenness' of French lizard-pattern, but as u can see the 'yellowness' still remains... I'll see what I can do abt the Golani bash...
