That was fantastic, OTB!!
When I opened it and saw W.S. McCallum, I was not expecting to see one of your games. Then I noticed that the table had your look. Next I noticed the bridges and other items you picked up in Saigon. Of course, I recognized your figures and your markers for hits or suppression.
As always, your narrative kept me on the edge of my seat. You do the most wonderful job with both the photos and the narrative. It is like a Hollywood production in stills. If I could scroll fast enough, it would be like a movie.
You deserve a Fields of Fire Academy Award.
Thanks for posting is not enough. Thanks for going through all of the work to make it.

When I posted my above comments, I forgot another clue that it was your work. The cool signs you make. Those and your other small details add a lot.
The density of your terrain pieces give your games a very Vietnamese look.
You must own the biggest warehouse in New Zealand to store all this stuff.

An 80’ x 80’ storeroom with a 30’ ceiling.

You know that one of those crates contains a list of everything that's in the other crates.
