Uh oh. I've been referenced on Wikipedia. Another Whif becomes "reality"

In the bibliography it references an article in Internet Modeler written by Stephen Tontoni and myself about the Bearcat of the 100 hours war.

Of course it's on the internet so it must be true...

Kay, don't see the reference in the Bib section but under Operators, they do list Honduras as having one and El Salvidor having captured it.
Do you have a link to the original article.  A Soccer War Bearcat would be cool.

Got it, Citations section.

Great Job.  While my Israeli S-92 or South Korean F-47 never made Wiki, I still get the odd email about my references for them.

Nice builds, looks like I need to find another Monogram 72nd Bearcat or 2.
