Bob,
That is one great looking "Flat-top". Your camo paint job is top notch.
Simply superb!

Great build Bob! Hopefully you'll bring her to our annual MosquitoCon show in Wayne NJ next spring, or the IPMS Region II convention we'll be hosting in Runnemede in October 2009.

Gordon, Gone Asiatic, Rob, Thanks guys.
Martin, I would like to go to MosquitoCon, and the IPMS Region II convention in Runnemede in October 2009, that's only about 20 mins. away with no traffic.

Today I donated my 1/700 CVL-26 USS Monterey to Owen Garrison, SFC, first loader on mount #9, and the Millville Army Air Force Museum at the Millville, NJ airport. It will be on permenant display in Owen's case where he volunteers as a docent. I think he got a real kick out of seeing his old ship.
