LOL, Erik, I admit I do play a pretty good game of that, but I think that's because I'm the only kid in the neighbourhood that uses a gun and a car when I do so
Under My Command: 5x Supermarine Spitfires/2x Armstrong Whitworth Albemarle/2x Curtiss P-40E Warhawk
I think out of everybody Owen looks the nerdiest, with Nathan losing first place only because he has a drunk picture of himself. Even though it's a very nerdy kind of drunk.
First picture I saw in the album of me, so, not the best choice, but still...

Lol! I meant no one in particular. I like the uniforms of the present day US military, even SWAT. I find it ironic that the US donned helmets similar to the WW2 German style. I love those helmets. Dieter, if you get all decked out in a Wehrmacht uniform, you better hide.

The US Army and Wehrmacht helmets weren't that similar? One was green and one was grey. Plus, one looked like Darth Vader. Of course, there is going to be similarities though when trying to put a round, metal protector over one's head...

No, I meant the ballistic style. LOL yeah, close to Vader's, but he had more of a scoop. The Americans have a similar frame, but not as pronounced. I wonder if they had that protection in WW2, maybe it could had saved more from head wounds, but back then Kevlar wasn't available of course, and an American could be shot by his own men if their styles were similar. The German helmet was very distinct. They often took their helmets off when marching so enemy planes would not strafe them.
