Well shazam and fuddlebegum! Yesterday I ordered the Cameron tank from WPG. I have been reading and savoring Fitzroy Maclean's "Eastern Approaches" for the last week or so, forcing myself to go slowly. ("Eastern Approaches" was apparently what lit the fire for Central Asia in Peter Hopkirk, and Hopkirk is apparently who lit the fire for Central Asia in me.)

I have read, now, to the point where the Second World War has broken out, and Maclean has resigned from the Foriegn Office and enlisted . . .

IN THE CAMERON HIGHLANDERS!
