Default RE: decals

Lots of really nice detailing. The uniforms sort of reflect Vietnam, so is that your target era now? M-41s were never used by the US in any combat, so these would have to be ARVN. It would be better with a Sherman, but then, in regards to weight, only one and you'll have to add the air stacks on the rear. Never been fully involved with landing/amphib, other than preparing to go to Lebenon from Korea in 1958. Then we had M-47s and one to a craft, and even at that, we were very nervous. All the prep work of sealing up everything prior to boarding is a real PITA. LST's would allow you to drive straight off, but smaller stuff, you had to be ready to go wading. Driving a tank under 5-8 feet of water is VERY unnerving. Waiting to see this deal in action. Assume the ramp is also RC?
