M113A2

[wildspear]

Any one know where I could get a good 1/35 kit of a M113A2 APC?

ebay have a heap, might be your only bet. It's the Tamiya, so enough said there I think.

There are around 1,000,000 variations, and Australia is using and modifying them even now with sub-sub-subsets. So tell us what you choose! DIO of course?

When I do get this it will be built to depict the time I spent as a Cbt Engr, maybe during the time I spent in Desert Storm...we will see.

M113's are pretty sweet vehicles aren't they?  I had an M113A3 for a tactical vehicle for three years when I was a Tank Company 1SG.  I loved that vehicle!

1st SGT,

When (time frame) were you with tankers? I thought tankers liked the Bradley's. Have any pics of your M113 you'd like to share?

Hi wildspear, please call me Ernest.  I was a Tank Company 1SG from  Oct 2001- Jan 2005.  Tankers do like to have Mech Infantry in Bradleys next to them, especially in urban places.  I was actually a scout by trade; however, 19D's and 19K's become 19Z's when promoted to MSG.  As it turned out I got an M1A1 Tank Company instead of a Cavalry Troop.  I do have some photos to post.  Give me a bit to dig them out.
