    Berlin Airlift

    i'm just watching a repeat of CBC's "Love, Hate & Propaganda"
    Anybody got a relative or friend who flew the supplies into Berlin in 48?
    Cheers to Truman for standing up to Stalin, didn't Churchill warn of his intentions in 45?
    regards, Jim (on vacay in beautiful Collingwood, Ontario)

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    The original footage always gets me hooked. 11 months of constant airlift until Stalin gave up is pretty incredible and a lot of people were req'd for this, any relatives on here?
    cheers, Jim
