Cool Military Pics & Art
Whether found on a site, done by a friend, or an aquaintance, or youself.
Post you military-based historical (prior to 1991) pics, art, and photgraphs here. Postcards too!
I'll start off:
One I did myself: Ich hatt einen Kameraden

I'm a huge fan of the military art of Angus Mcbride, here is a few of many of his great colour plates:

Producer's daughter: [enters] Hi mister. Thanks for fixing my doll.
[hugs him]
Larry: Aww, don't worry about it sweetheart.
Producer's daughter: [looks at him, scared, and runs out] Mommy, mommy. The old man's in the bathroom, and he's got something hard in his pants.

Cool, any background information on these mercenaries? Were they just barbarians from the Balkan or Spain, hired by the Ptolemies?Originally Posted by BKB

Eastern Empire Romans, I'm guessing? Thier greenish-blue shields make me think "byzantine".

Well I just moved into an old house back in October and found a few newspapers from late 30's and 40's. I have a British newspaper that dates back to the end of WWII. I will scan a few sections and post it here once I get home tonight.

They were Galatians in service of one of the Ptolemies, i think Ptolemy II. They attempted to carve territory for themselves in Egypt but they were defeated and the survivors were left on an island to starve to death! But this did not stop other Egyptian rulers from employing Celtic mercenaries later on.

They call this war a cloud over the land. But they made the weather and then they stand in the rain and say ****, it's raining!
