That's what a bunch of folks have been saying for over a year now. I look forward to the National Formation Manual making its public entrance (I've seen it and it puts the T-34 manual to shame). But until then...imho, if you want to get started NOW you may as well just bite the bullet and snag the T-34 manual.

It's available in PDF downloadable form for $9.95 from http://www.t-34.com/store/merchandise_manuals.asp You call the order in, and later that day they send you a download link.

It's "throwing away 10 bucks" in some respects, but again, if you want to start ramping up NOW then it's probably a good way to go.

No ....it's the current Navy T-34C training manual and syllabus. The T-34 manual everyone in the civilian world talks about is a different animal.

Default Marc, try before you buy!

Marc,

I'm in Saskatoon this week, and I have the FFM and two VHS tapes.
