<t>I Asked this in the CM forum no one seemed to know. In the book "Nothing Less Than Victory: The Oral History of D-Day" by Russell Miller, in the Omaha chapter; an Antiaircraft SP-flak Lieutenant (presumably in charge of a platoon of M16/M15 flak half-tracks) describes his vehicles as being ...

<t>*** Along a similar line, I've noticed that, in another current battle, I'm having 1 tank immobilized by 50CAL fire every other turn. ***<br/>

Any plans in the works to do the US/UK and other major powers "pics" in color? I'm thinking of doing a little colorization of the US pics but don't want to duplicate any official efforts. The german equipment pics are outstanding BTW.
