MINI WARGAMING: "Proud Wargaming Dad Moments!" (4 November 2007)

.

TOP: Some things just do a Wargaming Dad proud!

Hi All,

I read several wargaming forums and I read this the other day ago and it made me smile. Hope it gives you naches (warm feelings of pride) too:

I would like to share a special Wargaming Dad moment with you guys.

I have been trying to get hold of some if the great WW1 Wings of War minis (1/144 scale) but here in Oz, they are rather scarce. Then along comes a friend in the States who buys some from his local shop and ships them to me in Australia.

When they arrived this week my six-year-old son helped me open the box, pulled one out one and said:

"This looks just like Biggle's Sopwith Camel in France"

And indeed he was holding a Sopwith Camel!

What a proud moment for a Wargaming Dad!

My buddy Tas in Australia is a great guy and talk of his family always brings a smile to my face. I really love our hobby. I almost wish I had children myself. Maybe someday...

Have a great Sunday!

Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.
