Thumbs up

Hey Andy , glad you got the book. A Cavalry Platoon had 6 ACAVS , 3 Sheridans (152mm main gun ) and a 4.2 mortar track. We be bad. We called the ACAVS tracks. They were just juiced up APCs - two mounted 60's on the sides with gunshields the 50 on top had a gun shield and there was extra armor under the front. Hardly ever had more than 1 Sheridan in the bush cause they broke down so often , but that main guy was wonderful. Saw the main gun turn a guy into a pink mist one day. Hope to see you again soon. One armed Sally is asking when you'll be back to. :re:
