latormentabritanica Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 I wish I could be there to see it. Good luck with it all! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slick95 Posted October 14, 2007 Author Share Posted October 14, 2007 Well guys, I did it! Gathered all the neighbors around and told the 6 month kept secret of Les's P-47. He was so surprised and thankful! There were even some small tears that he tried to choke back. The event and timing was perfect! My neighbors took video and pictures. I will post them tomorrow. Even after all this, I still feel like it wasn't enough. None-the-less, he was very happy and thrilled to receive the P-47. SLICK Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackcollar Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 A great way to show appreciation to real heroes. WELL DONE!! :D :P Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slick95 Posted October 31, 2007 Author Share Posted October 31, 2007 Sorry for the HUGE delay! We had some problems transfering photos and mostly video of the event. I posted the photos, but hopefully we get the problem fixed this week and I can upload some of the videos. So far they are pretty cool, but we can't get them off the camera.

slick95 Posted November 5, 2007 Author Share Posted November 5, 2007 Thanks a lot! His stories are very very intresting and fun to listen to! SLICK Quote Link to post Share on other sites
latormentabritanica Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Oh man Slick, this is awesome! I'm sure he really appreciated that. I have a friend who was in the 352nd FG and I want to build his Mustang and have him sign it, but I don't know how to make the decals at home. Could you make a tutorial like you've been promising us? Also, I'd like to know more about this P-47 pilot. I'm guessing from the video that he had four aerial victories. It would be great to hear some more details. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
afterburner Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Great work Slick!!!! Top-notch job and it looks like it got him excited to see his old friend. I really appreciate what you did for him, wish all of us could do it as well as you did. Please tell him thanks on my behalf. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slick95 Posted November 6, 2007 Author Share Posted November 6, 2007 (edited) Sorry guys, I've just been busy...but I do plan on doing a tutorial for the decals. Thanks for the comments guys! I'm glad you like you it! I will tell him thanks from you all! It's late at the moment, but I will write some more information about his P-47 tomorrow. Thanks again!
