Don't you mean 'Obama Beach' - as it was recently renamed by our glorious leader?

The other half track has an anti aircraft gun turret mounted on it with an even bigger turret towed behind. madness,I tell you.
My mate has had a midnight raid by armed police before. investigating his guns etc.
He went to Dover to buy a gun mount for a jeep. The deal was done in a ferry terminal carpark and a member of the public reported his mysterious buying of a long pointy object and the handing over of a envelope of cash to a French man who had just driven off the ferry.
The police checked his permits etc and that his guns where indeed de-activated, All was well so they stopped for a couple more hours talking guns and stuff.
He wasn't allowed to take his guns to the D-day event though, the French dont like that kind off thing. Shame really as he would have had a few chances to eliminate Gordon brown Laughing esp if he had taken the huge gun that fits on the gun ring above the truck cab in the second pic Shocked At work

Classic. Wish I had been there.

With the half track this is the weapon of choice surely...
