Just started my FOW project. Something I said I'd never get into given I was already doing 28mm WWII skirmish. Now it seems I am addicted. Please follow and provide comments as you see fit. More on my blog here: link

Is "ABN" a recognised abbreviation for "Airborne"? If so, I must admit I've never seen it before.

I love the figures, but I think your terrain (especially the river) is the most impressive. Thanks for sharing. ben

MajorB, yes it is. Thanks Ben, I appreciate that.

Nicely done. And I agree the scenery is top notch as well!

Yep, it all looks very nice. I have seen ABN listed for Airborne.

I think the "ABN" is more of a modern acronymn type thing. I've seen it many times in my US Army service, but not so much in reading history etc. Great work on those models Larry R!

Thanks guys and yes VonBurge, thats probably where I picked it up as well.

I too have a FoW 82nd Airborne company; I particularly like the 75mm pack howitzers.
