Another facade of a destroyed building in WW2. Not supposed to be anything in particular, showing off the roof window finally. Enjoy!
I have an uncle who was a marine during ww2 who fought in the pacific. This is a Japanese flag that he brought home, it has a few names written on it from some of the men that he served with. The names on the flag are:
Charles F Blanbo from Washington DC ( I think that's what the last name is, its kinda fuzzy)
Harold L Bachelor from Portland Oregon
Wm Roberts from Brookville Indiana
Frank Trusky from Akron Ohio
James E. Day from Huntsville Alaska
Douglas P. Searbrough from Monterey Tennessee
Harlan Bunnilk from Rockford Minnesota
John L. England from Jacksonville Texas
and my uncle Charles Fortney
I'm still trying to get more information like the unit he was in and if my uncle can remember where he got the flag from. He gave this to me about 25 or 30 years ago, it's been at my parents house till I asked them to send it to me.
A candid black-and-white portrait of Seimon Pugh-Jones sitting by a classic military Jeep. Taken at a classic vehicle show.
Shot on a Canon 70D with a 50mm lens, I aimed for a timeless feel by using monochrome, enhancing the textures and contrasts to bring out the details of the uniform, the netted helmet, and the rugged Jeep.
Seimon Pugh-Jones also operates a mobile museum, preserving history through immersive experiences. To learn more about the mobile museum, please visit their Crowdfunder page:

Looking back 75 Years WW2. Normandy, France.
D-Day, June 6, 1944. WW2.
The Mulberry Harbour was built for D-Day in June 1944. The Mulberry Harbour’s purpose was to ease and speed up the unloading process so that Allied troops were supplied as they advanced across France after breaking out from Normandy. The success of D-Day could only be maintained if the advancing troops were supplied and more men landed. The Mulberry Harbour was one of the greatest engineering feats of World War Two.
Here are some of my new Japanese soldiers, including: Ghillie Sniper, Sgt. or a high rank soldier, a regular soldier, and a messed up pilot. I hope you guys enjoy!
Kaiser Shipyard No. 3 was one of four Kaiser shipyards in Richmond that built Liberty and Victory cargo ships and troop transports during WW2.
i have an obsession with the WW2 era for some reason.
idk how this idea came to me, but just thought i'd give it a try.
& my monitor all of a sudden became super-contrasted.
so i have no idea how this picture really looks.
hopefully it's okaay.
I did it. I built a WW2 MOC. And there are probably more to follow since I’ve quite a few minifigs I’ve never used before.
The minifigs are from TMC and CitizenBrick.
The window technique is from Maxim Baybakov , please check out his stream.
Soviet soldiers looking for enemy presence from their trench.
Industrial area of Stalingrad, c. 1942
This photo was taken for the stop motion as a character photo for the credits scene, it is heavily inspired by similar looking real life photos of the Battle of Stalingrad where both German and Soviet troops look out from their trenches.

A friend and I were at Bunker Bash 2009, the annual military rally at the former Government bunker at Kelvedon Hatch, near Brentwood in Essex. We had been undecided about going so arrived late and not in the best of weather.
We found an enthusiatic bunch of re-enactors and military vehicles owners covering both World Wars. One part of the site had been laid out as mock entrenchments with various national groups including British, US, German, Soviet and even Serbian forces dug-in.
Now part of a large set: www.flickr.com/photos/barryslemmings/sets/72157618288704499/

Been messing with the design a little, now it's purist and has NPU for me by using the hook hands, these little builds may seem simple enough but trust me I mess around with at least 20 variations before finally stopping on one..it takes time and patience at this size when your hands ain't exactly small either.
Will try get a photo in the sun later
