75th RANGER (in MultiCam)

Yo'all know what.... it's RANGER season.

CD & SS out there slugging it out hoping to outdo each other, Ben trying to sell his Ranger kitbash for couple hundreds..... Time to post my bash since it's been completed for couple months now before Ranger fatigue sets in all round.

Having completed my Xbox360 MOH game in a rush late last year (coz was in a hurry to play CoD:Black Ops), i can still vaguely remember the Rangers in MOH were not kitted out in Multicam. Hell, even the Rangers in Modern Warfare were in ACU & not MC. But for presentation sake i've borrowed the MOH Ranger patch. So kitbash wise this Ranger's definitely not MOH game accurate.

Guess it's time now to revisit my hastily completed MOH game & unearth some more themes with kitbash potentials. And yeah, my money's on the CD Ranger Gunner in terms of it's overall appeal. SS not trying hard enough.

PATHFINDER PLATOON

Having been referred to as 'the elite of the elite', the Pathfinder Platoon is the recce element of UK's 16 Air Assault Brigade.

In the summer of 2006, the Pathfinders (numbering approx. 25 men) fought off a protracted siege laid down by the Taliban in the town of Musa Qaleh, Helmand Province.

The aforesaid battle was described in moderate detail in one of the chapters in Patrick Bishop's book: '3 PARA'. Reference to this bash was from one of the illustrations published in the book depicting a group photo of the Pathfinders in Musa Qaleh. There are however bound to be certain inaccuracies in this kitbash as the quality of the photo was rather grainy & zoomed-out (in order to capture the shot of the whole platoon). To this end, some liberties had been taken for the bash.

To the Musa Muckers....
