Hello All:

I just want to share this with all of you wonderful people here.

Yesterday, I signed the contract with Squadron for the book on SCs ... So, within the next eighteen months, it should be out in print ... look for it in 2010 .........

And, I am continuing work on the revamp of my PT book.

Go Garth Go!

Looking forward to the 110' PC/Subchaser volume, they were a handy and inexpensive tool for the Navy during the war giving excellent service and value.

Late, as usual...

Garth, I guess that would be a great reference for any one interested in correcting the old Glencoe model.
It's still a very slick looking ship, much overlooked, either in model form and in publications.
Looking forward to see the end result

Good luck with it!
