"It wasn't the reward that mattered or the recognition you might harvest. It was your depth of commitment, your quality of service, the product of your devotion -- these were the things that counted in a life. When you gave purely, the honor came in the giving, and that was honor enough."

Very cool, Sir Wolf!  I love how you get into the whole facial hair/haircut aspect of the various periods you do.  It really pulls the whole kit together.  When I look at the pics of your Norman kit, it's like I'm seeing an ancestor of the WWII persona, as oppossed to the same guy wearing a different kit.  Nice job!

Very cool kits! I especially liked the gasoline stove...brings back many frigid memories of Germany '84!  ;)
