Dear Bernard First In reply to Joe’s post of 5/2/12 about the gun Starbuck carries it’s the Adam’s 5 shot selfcocking revolver. Also In regards to Starbuck’s future campaigns have you ever thought of sending him on Jubal Early’s famous march to Washington and his subsequent battles with Sheridan. I know they were defeats and you dont like getting you main character to them but he is on the losing side anyway so it was always gonna happen. Also would you ever consider the Dutch wars in the 1600’a worth a book ever. Nelson himself said he didn’t reckon he was Blake’s equal and the Napoleonic Wars on the Naval side have been pretty much mined out. Yours sincerely Geraint P.S If you have not read it Martin Windrows Our Friends Beneath the Sands on the French Foreign Legion is worth a good read.
