Pretty damn cool red! I love it! I never thought of using those mid evil jousting tents for GI tents. Good idea.

Thanks brother!!! I did a little custom work on them so they would look more like a military tent---I think they work pretty good!!! I figured that someone else would have come up with this by now because they are perfect for XD!!!!! Thanks again!!!---RED---

Love the tents but am really impressed with the Marine sans shirt. How did you swing this?
Red, I hate to offer a critique of this otherwise perfect diorama but you really need a Mr. T!
