 Subject:  Re: Why do we like tanks so much?List thread.  
  
 Date:  Aug 27, 2006
 From:  Dwayne Williams 
Always was fascinated with military history. When I was growing up the 100th anniversery of the American Civil War was happening. Obviously a package or two of toy soldiers was to be found in the toy chest. My father built aircraft kits as well and he would spend as much time as he could doing that and we built a few together. Then came school and a fascination with women took hold. Always kept reading my history but I must say that the women were priority number one. After I finally caught one that I could settle down with my history bug came rushing back. I saw a copy of Panzer Blitz by Avalon Hill and then it was Tanks! The same store also had the Tamiya Pzkw IV H with the Panzergrenediers as well, I was hooked. I would have to say though that if I didn't have this interest in military history I doubt I would be building tank models.
