NOW SHOWING in the Screening Room for exclusive viewing by our Contributing Members.
Although the Military Surplus Collectors Forums are FREE to everyone interested in our chosen hobby, Contributing Members are a special group of people who have graciously chosen to voluntarily donate a nominal amount of money, to help us defray several thousand dollars in annual system bandwidth, server, disk storage and monthly maintenance costs needed to operate the site.
This group of members receive additional recognition and access capabilities to MILSURPS.COM, such as a coloured banner panel under their name, a unique colour display of their chosen user name, unlimited picture uploads and file storage on the system, ability to delete their own posts, a substantial increase in private message storage to 2,000 PM's, plus they are NOT exposed to reading Google Ad-sense, or other types of banner advertisements on the site. Finally, they have full access to the Milsurps "Team" Forum, a private forum for the Milsurps Advisory Panel and Contributing Members, where we make available private downloads of military history magazines, books and other gun related publications, as well as show high quality full length feature films, not available in the general public forums.
Black Watch Snipers tells the epic "band of brothers" story of five men who fought their way through WWII as a team of snipers and scouts.
Their mission: to clear towns of German troops that that would decimate advancing Allied soldiers. This is a "Band of Brothers" story as told by the men who experienced it: the surviving members of a sniper unit from Canada’s most storied Regiment - the Black Watch. They tell vivid, but chilling stories of their deadly solo attacks and encounters with the enemy.
The Black Watch snipers did the dirtiest work in the war, armed with nothing but their wits and their rifles, as they endured the ultimate test of combat in the liberation of Western Europe from Nazi tyranny. Several of the men are still alive to talk about what they went through, and gripping, dramatic re-creations bring their experiences to life. This is their story.
