T
he memory lives on! The 6th
June 2019 marked the 75th
anniversary of the D-Day
Landings and the Battle
of Normandy, and with it came an occasion
to remember the debt we owe. Normandy
will forever bear the scars of
that moment in history and
we at SMMI pay tribute to the
veterans from the UK, America
Canada, Belgium, Denmark,
Holland, Norway, Poland and
Australia, along with their
brothers in arms, those many
heroes who lost their lives during
that summer of 1944. It’s always
worth remembering that when
we create and AFV in plastic
from a war-zone, it’s not only a replica of
something from a more tangible, but also
a reminder of the sacrifices made. To that
end, this month we welcome back modeller
Tom Cole to SMMI with his poignant small-
scale D-Day diorama, which I hope you will
not only enjoy, but also take a moment to
reflect on its significance.
Elsewhere Robin Gilby brings builds
both contemporary and veteran, with his
Leclerc and T-34 features, and Marc Elsoght
add another diorama to our pages with his
‘Last Strongpoint – Berlin 1945’ article. We
go large with Michael Franz’s
Armoured ‘Mouse‘ and the 1:35
Takom Maus V2, along with
a look at the Soviet ZSU-23-4
‘Shilka, and the ASCOD IFV. So as
always this is backed up with our
monthly look at all that is new in
the world of military, figures and
warships, so all that remains for
me to say is…..
Happy Modelling
