[StartQuote] AHOY THERE TO ALL MY FRIENDS AND SHIP MODELERS OUT THERE- I'M LOOKING FOR ANY PHOTOS THAT YOU WOULD BE WILLING TO SHARE WITH ME REGARDING THE PT BOAT BASE ON THE ISLAND OF TULAGI, BETTER KNOWN AS " CALVERTVILLE ", LOCATED IN THE SOLOMON ISLANDS, IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC. I HAVE BUILT A ONE OF A KIND 1/32 SCALE ' FLOATING ' DIORAMA OF TULAGI WHICH IS FOR THE MOST PART SCRATCH BUILT FROM USING THE ACTUALL PHOTOS I HAVE FOUND ABOUT TULAGI. THIS MASSAVE PROJECT HAS TAKEN ME TEN YEARS TO CONSTRUCT AND IS COMPLETELY PORTABLE. I SHOW THIS DISPLAY MANY TIMES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR AT MILITARY GATHERINGS AND VETERANS RE-UNIONS. I EVEN TAKE THIS DISPLAY INTO MY LOCAL SCHOOL SYSTEM HERE IN NORTH FLORIDA TO TEACH THE YOUNGSTERS ABOUT THE CONFLICT OF WW II IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC. THIS DIORAMA MEASURES 8' X 14' FEET AND COVERS 5 FULL SIZED BANQUET TABLES, AND IS STILL GROWING. I NEED TO KNOW IF ANYONE OUT THERE HAS ANY PHOTO COPIES THEY WOULD BE WILLING TO SHARE WITH ME SO THAT I CAN FURTHER EXPAND THIS DIORAMA OF THE PT BOAT BASE ON TULAGI. THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO HAS SUPPLIED ME WITH PHOTOS IN THE PAST AND IN HELPING TO MAKE THIS DIORAMA POSSIBLE. FRANK RYCZEK, JR. MODELER/FRIEND RON 10 PT-169 "ZEBRA SNAFU" HIGH TIDES ALWAYS! YOUR FRIEND THROUGH SCALE SHIP MODELING AND PT BOAT HISTORY![EndQuote]
