Title: Nose Art and Touch-up on my M16A2
Post by: mkoloc on September 04, 2019, 12:55:35 AM: My very talented brother JD made up the logos for my M16A2 "African Queen" preservation project and I finally installed them and also touched up the original hand drawn/painted markings that were all but faded away.

Working on the turret so I can drop it back into the track. Hagerty is doing a 4 page article on its recovery from Africa, its history and my efforts to keep her all original, a/or as I like to say, A Preservation Project.
