[Dixiecapt]

How is the campaign coming along? (sorry: had to ask!) :roll:

No Problem as of Now I have 7 of 34 complete, and I have to Re-do a Template for the second half of the Campaign as it moves along from the 12-43 to the 7-43 Slot Map.

That Seventh mission is very famous and Dan made a point to tell me this mission should be in this campaign, but it took me about 20 hours to get right!

There is a Photo that was taken after this mission that is on the Background you will get for this campaign. The Background is posted at the begining of this topic. The Photo is of an F4U, Three Pilots, and the american flag. The Pilots are Major Payton, and Lts. Vedder, and Peck.

Lt. Eckart didn't make it home and the pilots left that empty space for him in the photo.

For Fun, here is PART of the REAL After Action report from that mission. The whole thing is about 5 pages, but thats because each pilot gives a testimony on top of the summary of action. (And yes the missions I'm making follow the after action reports to the letter, which is the reason this one gave me so much trouble.)
