It is that time of year for us Northern Hemisphere folks to encounter the usual winter time head colds and such. Like OC said, load up on Vitamin C and Zinc and have the more focused remedies available to fight those colds. And stay away from others (which isn't too difficult these days). Work on your models, if you can.

EG, hope the weather effects are minimal on your meds. That is very sloppy work. Our delivery services really stink these days. The Amazon folks walk up my 300 ft slalom driveway to my back door, drop it at the "mail room" door and walk back to their truck. If I didn't see the fella walking up the hill, I'd never know of a delivery until I got the delivery made email. Granted my goods are glues and such, but too cool or wet could affect other items. Chuckleheads. Fascinating review of Surigao. Yes, the USN set up a kill zone and destroyed the Japanese force. It was not a well executed maneuver of crossing the T as all the "Gun Club" members wanted. Has there been a more current study published? We (NATO air and ground forces) did similar planning in West Germany during the Cold War, attempting to funnel the Warsaw Pact hordes into areas we could bring our forces to bear effectively.

Don't forget, the Depression hurt the democracies much harder than the dictatorships. Funds were tight. The Washington Naval treaties restrictions were being more and more ignored, but the democracies were fiscally trying to hold the line of shipbuilding costs. The Treaty cruisers were a prime point.

It is, EG, unfortunately. And no reports of singed bodyparts. Y'all be careful, ya heah.

Inciteful discussion of the battle, gentlemen. Thanks. 👍 We sit and wait on the wayward delivery systems.

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
