The great Fletcher experiment

  • Summary

  • After watching "Greyhound", an incredibly good movie about antisubmarine warfare in WWII, I fell in love with the actual hero of the story. Not Tom Hanks, but the USS ¨Keeling¨ (call name ¨Greyhound¨), the Fletcher-class destroyer under Ernest Krause´s command, a delightful performance from Tom Hanks, who is becoming the Spencer Tracy of the XXI century. Given my current fascination with scale modelling, I got a set of Polish-made papercraft templates that will enable anybody with enough patience to build a 1:200 scale model of a Fletcher. More precisely, the US ¨Leutze¨ DD-481.
