MY wife is doing training down in the greater DC area; and my son and I accompanied her for the first week. I took the kiddo to the National Zoo, Udvar-Hazy Air and Space Museum; as well as the battlefields of Gettysburg, Antietam, Monocacy and Harpers Ferry. In Gettysburg, I managed to find a few Joes and an addition to my small-scale artillery park.

Well-used Mike Power:

Repaired and wearing Geyperman French Resistance and Captain Action jumpsuit (to offset the gimpy atomic leg).

I also found this Cotswold 101st paratrooper in the same antique store:

I also brought home this small Civil War mortar:

That mortar is pretty cool! It reminds me of the rail-mounted cannon from the 1927 silent film, The General:

Nice! That’s supposed to be the 13” Dictator Mortar.
