May I present to you: The DUKW.

So, finally done. WOOHOO
!Here are the pics. Sorry about the quality, due to the somewhat old camera and the
somewhat old geezer taking the shots....
The story is:
The DUKW's were used to bring supplies and sometimes troops from the ships to the
shore, where the supplies were unloaded and later loaded on to the trucks following
the troops.
This was the end of D-Day. A few coastal towns were captured, so the DUKW's were
ordered to bring the supplies in one off those towns to unload. Seeing this was
easier then unloading on the beach.
This "picture" represents a DUKW waiting in line to be unloaded further up the
street. The driver is taking off the net and tarp in advance, so the unloading
can be done quickly.
The dio
And the street where this is all happening.

This was my first "reel" dio.
Learned alot, had a lot off fun making it, bud I think I will not be doing this
again very soon because iit took me a lot off time. And my problem (well, one off
them anyway) is that I can't do two builds at the same time.
So, I'm glad it's finished.
On to a new challenge
.Thanks for watching
,Peter.
....WOW!!!
