• Pardon the dust while the boys rebuild the site.

    The board will be in a state of disarray as I get things sorted out, for a little while at least.

    The new incarnation is using Xenforo as the system software. It is much like what we are used to, with a few differences. I will see about making a FAQ to help point out the differences for the members.

     

    One IMPORTANT difference for all of us old timers is that the 'mail' system is replaced with what are called 'conversations'/

    There is no 'Inbox' or 'Out box' or 'Sent' folders anymore.

    Think of Conversations as private 'threads' or topics that don't exist in a forum, that you start with another member. NOTE: Conversations can include more than one member if you or someone else in the conversaion, likes.
    Takes a little getting used to but I am sure you all can get a hang of it.

     

    Only a slightly modified default default Xenforo style is available for now. Once the new SAG style is ready it will be available.

    All existing users should be able to login with their usernames and passwords once the site goes up.

     

    If anyone has difficulties logging in please contact me at sixthvanguard@gmail.com.

     

    Thank you for your support and patience. I know it has been a loooong road.

82nd airborne and facial camo/war paint

hello fellow hobbists :}
Did any troops in the 82nd apply the black 'pathfinder' camo face paint or indian war paint like certain units did in the 101st?
...also how accurate is DID's 82nd airborne figure "corbin black" warpaint sculpt...did 82nd paras applied such facial paint?

any info you have concerning specific units in the 82nd and facial war/camo paint i'd greatly appriciate bros.... as i'm awaiting on the new airborne figures to do various bashes.

thank you all
Miguel T.-
 
The "black face" camo was very common among both divisions as it was a night time drop.. There were many different things used.

In my search there was only the one small group within the 101st. that used the "War paint". I have not seen any documentation to support that this was widely practiced. Nor have I seen any documentation to suggest it was used in the 82nd at all.
