Here are the IDs as best as I can recall. All are from left to right as you look at the picture.

Tanks 1

Russian T-34

German quad-20mm anti-aircraft gun on a tank chassis

German Assault Gun III

German Panzer III light tank

Tanks 2

German King Tiger

US Sherman

German Tiger

German Panther

Tanks 3

King Tiger (for scale)

German JagdPanzer Assault Gun (later version of the other one, much bigger and tougher)

US Pershing Heavy Tank (few saw action as the preference was for large numbers of Shermans)

US Hellcat Anti-tank vehicle (Looks like a tank but has very light armor)

Tanks 4

King Tiger

US Chaffee Light tank

British Matilda Infantry tank (early war model, slow, lots of armor, designed to support infantry)

US Patton tank (a post WWII upgrade, more or less, of the Pershing)

Tanks 5

King Tiger

US M-60 of 1991 vintage

US M-1 Abrams, current model

(these two are in desert colors)

Tanks 6

King Tiger

German Panzer IV (roughly equal to the Sherman)

German Sturmpanzer Brummbar (A heavy assault gun, mainly against infantry)

I have a few others that are still in the box and didn't take them out because of how difficult it would be to put them back in again.

" Here are the IDs as best as I can recall. All are from left to right

Thanks for the list. I have read about many of these tanks in books on

wars, but many of these books did not come with pictures. Now I have a

better idea of what these vehicles look like.

I've got a number of books from publishers like Squadron Signal on the different tanks. These are short, picture and chart heavy books. I thought about taking some pictures of them spread out, but realized that it didn't make good subject matter. I've also got some Identification Books, like a couple of older Jane's series books. I say older because new, a Jane's can cost several hundred dollars. Wait a few years and it is still mostly in date and costs far less.

Thank you Gail. I will look into this more and talk about it with the

psychologist...and look

at talking to other counsellors for further insight as well. It certainly seems

to me that

going straight to meds is too much for the level of OCD my daughter has...we

need to

exhaust all other options first.

Interesting. We also investigated the UTI route, and Caitlin

consistently has microscopic hematuria. The conclusion of 2 pediatric

urologists (I went for a second opinion because felt brushed off by

the first) was that if she does have kidney reflux, it's not severe

and it's not the cause of her fevers because she has no signs of

infection.

Other than the microscopic hematuria, she has normal urine tests and

nothing shows up on cultures.

Its just peculiar that there would be a consistency where many of the children

seem to

have the original symptoms of UTI but cultures are neg for the most part. and

nothing to

treat. If it is reflux in the slightest degree, although is mostly a

throat are thing it is

rather strange the the two tend to follow, I would love to see more research

done with this

and other strange things that occur regarding .

Did she ever act as though it was painful to use the potty or have increased

desire to not

be touched/washed there which occurred out of the blue? I just wonder because

thats

really how this all started for us. After the birth of my son eh was

hospitalized and we

were not around much because of the time spent in NIcu, my daughter I think

became

stressed but also since i wasnt washing her caring for her I did not know if

maybe she did

get a UTI. Yet, later it wasnt one and the fevers well kept coming after that

and on a cycle.

Another thing I thought strange, the fevers started within 6 months of me no

longer

breastfeeding, My doctor said is a syndrome that has to due with an

immunity

problem, or at least thats how I understood it but I get confused because I

always go to

these appointments with my son and find myself having trouble focusing since I

have

ADHD, it becomes very difficult at times. But if thats the case I wonder if the

breastfeeding helped keep it at bay, along with the asthma that developed one I

stopped

breastfeeding? All this is theoretical but just thoughts I have when i think of

these things.

I mean if most kids grow out of it, why what does that mean about the disorder?

Is it like

acid reflux where the kids digestive tract develops better so the acid reflux

stops? so than

will their throat or whatever it is anoids and tonsil do something as they grow

so the grow

out of it? I know I just went of on a tangent I just wish there was more known

about this

disorder. I am sure we all do.

I would be very interested in hearing more about these powerbelt videos, my treadmill will be fixed this Friday and I absolutly love Kathy . I have never heard of these. I also love Gilad and Sharon Mann but I don't have any of their videos yet. I tivo them from fittv but then I really hate the commercials and it's such a pain to fast forward while you are exercising. I wonder if anyone else uses fit tv. I usually just use it to see who I like and then buy their videos.

either way, there are compilation dvds that you can buy... no

his 'express workouts' dvds are pretty good too. hmmm, i see

Thanks Carolyn, actually I have recorded both the bodies in motion and the

total body sculpt, I love them both. I will check them out and probably buy

some. I appreciate the help.

The DASH study reported that blacks responded much better to the DASH than whites. I suggested about 23 years ago (1987) that the greater SS in the African Diaspora is a consequence of selective survival (evolution) during slavery. Some refs below.

Thank you for the extensive reading list should be interesting researchRegards Walcott-

The DASH study reported that blacks responded much better to the DASH than whites. I suggested about 23 years ago (1987) that the greater SS in the African Diaspora is a consequence of selective survival (evolution) during slavery. Some refs below. Actually this would make a great Group: Salt, Slavery, and High Blood Pressure Today in the African Diapora. Have not searched to see if there are any adressing this topic. Maybe some one can look?
