Beautiful!

My father in law was a PCF crewman, he talked about these, the monitors and zippos...


GREAT WORK!

Hi Rick!

What a way of making your entrance into MSW! Welcome to the crew!
Your project is surely one of those that I look forward to see any progresses and of course, the final result.

The Program 5 CCB is very good
Congratulations

Welcome aboard Rick,

Thanks for sharing your model with us. Spotless workmanship throughout your build. I look forward to the completed barge diorama.
