About Me

- Everybody seems to like me, even assholes that I have nothing in common with...I think that's because I'm such a good listener, and I have a keen sense of humor. So read this as if we were already friends, because we probably would be if you found your way here. Other stuff from me here: http://combathelmets.blogspot.com http://toysoldiersforever.blogspot.com

Wonderful! off topic, but the one stand out present I received that I will alway remember was a large set of Lego. I remember being upset because I wasn't allowed to play with it until after breakfast...LOL
Naturally, making forts for my plastic soldiers was the main use Lego was put to. :)
I was eleven when I got the MARX "Giant (T.V.) Battle of the Blue and Gray", complete with "battle sounds"; by the fall of 1962 my brother and I had garnered enough figures, accessories etc. to mount some big battles. have pic posted at FaceBook "Armymen Collectors" page ...
