Please reconsider Waleed. I've been really bussy with work lately but I have had half an eye on the forum and I don't like the direction it's gone lately either. If you allow me to make a suggestion: The hollidays are comming next week. Take some time off from the forum, eat too much, drink too much...

When visiting the armor museum at Parola a couple of years ago we were told that some of the equipment wasn't on display because it was used in the making of this film. So the tanks seen in this film are the real deal 8) I was planning on taking a day off from work on that day, so I might well go an...

Ooooh...that was a real sneaky one Waleed!

I first thought about going through the entire thread, wouldn't have really thought about going back just one page. Luckily, in this case at least, I've been too bussy to participate in this riddle.

Waleed snatches the laurel leaves of victory on the finish line! :D http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i234/Arhac/percy_hobart.jpg Yes Major-General Percy Hobart was the person I was looking for.

Hello Paul

You're right, it is him

Hauptfeldwebel Gustav Schwarzenegger served with the Feldgendarmerie in WW2 and afterwards continued with the police force.

Good morning.

Found the author: Robert E. Howard. I don't have a connection to Mr X yet....

Good morning kanzel.

It's not Heller but the person did become known for his fictional work about the military.

One of the charachters is a sexist and inept brigadier general.

Here is another picture.



Yes he is an american. He served in Italy and after the war left the army at the rank of first liutenant.

What he did after that is what he is known for, that too is related to the military.

OK, let's see what you make of this...



Who is this person and what is he known for?
