Officers Mess

Remember when the hobby used to be fun?

I would like to express what I think with a song : /


Wait until the war is over
And we're both a little older
The unknown soldier

Breakfast where the news is read
Television children fed
Unborn living, living, dead
Bullet strikes the helmet's head

And it's all over
For the unknown soldier
It's all over
For the unknown soldier

Hut
Hut
Hut ho hee up
Hut
Hut
Hut ho hee up
Hut
Hut
Hut ho hee up
Comp'nee
Halt
Preeee-zent!
Arms!

Make a grave for the unknown soldier
Nestled in your hollow shoulder
The unknown soldier

Breakfast where the news is read
Television children fed
Bullet strikes the helmet's head

And, it's all over
The war is over
It's all over
The war is over
Well, all over, baby
All over, baby
Oh, over, yeah
All over, baby

@Luchs:
I saw another topic in the Officers Mess that he makes fake ones.
Or would you have a real one?

Or maybe you're never historically correct but it's just a case of no one really caring :-)

in fantacy one is never historicaly correct as usualy your breaking the laws of physics at the same time :tongue: at ythe same time your always historicaly correct because your creating the history of the world in which the fanticy is set :mrgreen: or of coarse there is no history atall because it is made up...
...I am always historicaly incorect but everyone thinks my models look right because I made my greeks look like romans and my romans look like greeks. then when I post romans vs greeks everyone sees historicaly correct models and dosent get it when I say that i REALLY messed up :lol: :lol:
