During the Texas Broadside convention I will be delivering two short lectures. The first, on Saturday the 25th of this month is called "Hiding in the open". It covers various kinds of camouflage used at sea during WW2 and with illustrations I have prepared, demonstrates the effectiveness and limitations of the colours and patterns used. Because each talk has to be short, the one on Saturday only covers the battle of the Atlantic and NW European waters. A second one on Sunday will cover other areas. |

Sounds very interesting. Have you considered recording it and posting on You Tube for those of us that are unable to attend? cheers |

Have you considered recording it and posting on You Tube Someone else made a similar request Killer Woobie. The wargames group running it say they have no plans to do that. As I will be far from home I dont have the means to do it either. Perhaps if you make a request to them the Houston Beer and Pretzels wargamers may make arrangements. I will ask them again too. |

OK
I've just communicated with the organisers. They will make arrangements to film my two talks. How they are to be then delivered for others to see will be worked out later. |

Just had a message from Mal to say that he and TMP have gone separate ways. |

funny how people who really know what they're talking about and have some sort of standards end up leaving these forums, while a number of trolling !#$^!#&%%*&@$* who seem to be popular with the owner get to keep compulsively posting sarcastic, negative, off-topic posts, and never get reigned in. No wonder I'm a user not a supporter

For anyone who cares to peruse the subject that was to have been covered by Mal, have a look here: link This is a compilation of a series of articles on naval camouflage published by Alan Raven. You'll find more on the site as well. |
