On March 7, 1945, Lieutenant Colonel Leonard Engeman commanded a task force of the US 14th Tank Battalion and the 27th Armored Infantry Battalion US 9th Armored Division. This task force was on its way to Remagen, a small town on the Rhine. They discovered that the bridge over the Rhine had not been destroyed and finally took it in the early afternoon - completely unplanned. The idea is to present selected vehicles from this task force and create one or more small displays. After the progress from August 2024, I must confess that the Mirage sets and the Mister Craft Piper Cup are not really convincing. I can not recommend these sets. Let's see if the HMC Scott from Mirage Hobby will be easier to build...
