Default Norm Darwin book

I have a copy somewhere too. I remember there were some problems with titles being swapped around and a CGT being used instead of a Ford.

The value for money of the manuals at the Canadian Register is superb, but they do not include all sections (at least when I downloaded, before acquiring so many originals). For example, they didn't originally scan the sections for the winch. The reason I was given was that the most popular/needed sections had been scanned.

Default Army crates

Whilst not specifically blitz I thought someone may be interested in these for use as props or more practical purposes.

Thanks Graeme,

The contact is well know in Auzzie Military circles.

It is Tim Vibert in Wangarratta.
