25 Years on - Gulf War I

16 January 2016 marks the 25th Anniversary of the (first) Gulf War.

Just wondered if any folks here would be interested in a Campaign to remember the events of 16th January - 26th February 1991, (celebrate isn't a word I'd use, lost a couple of friends there).

Over to you guys.

Ian.
 
I have a few that will fit the bill Get a Poll up mate Its one we should have done a loooong time back already :drinks
 
Hell Bob, You are absolutely right. War is hell and time lies when you are getting older. I wonder if they have a 32 scale MOPP suit? :drunk
 
Got some rules & times in mind.
Will be at my computer in about an hour.
Standby please.

OK here's some details if it gets enough votes - still open to discussion & flexibility.

1 - INCLUDED Any subject, any scale that appeared in the 1991 Gulf War, both the build-up and the immediate post war 'police actions'. There's plenty of choice here folks please don't try to bend the rules simply to match what's in the stash, OK ??

2 - START-UP & DURATION Start time, ideally 28th February (2016) as this was the day that Pres. Bush declared the Cease Fire (I believe if we're remembering a particular conflict, the end of that conflict is more appropriate than the beginning, but that's just an opinion). Simply to make things neat & tidy I would suggest it runs to the end of the year 31st December this gives us ten whole months, more than enough time.

Thanks Terry for getting the poll up, I posted this initially simply to gauge reaction, however it seems to have quickly caught-on. I would respectfully remind folks that the 1991 Gulf War was an INTERNATIONAL conflict so can we keep that in mind when choosing our projects.

Thanks folks.

My wife bought me a Tamiya M60 a while back that I need to build that would be perfect for this. I'll refrain from voting and just give a tentative yes on this, mostly because I already have too much in work and have no idea where I will be with my other campaign builds at that time.
