For now, however, the Ta-383s seemed to be doing just what Hall though they would. For a few perilous seconds, they careened towards the border in direct collision with Hall and his wingman. Their collision course then gradually turned into a long, graceful right-hand turn, with all four fighters maintaining the irregular wedge formation the Germans called a 'schwarm' as their coursed morphed into one flying northward, directly parallel with Hall's CAP on the German side of the border.
And then there they were; two American fighters and four German ones flying within eyesight of one another on either side of an international border in the middle of a Cold War crisis.
-
Finally getting around to doing some actual stories in my Black Sun universe (working my way up to some bigger projects in the works).
You can go read the story, "Sunset Showdown", over on AO3 or on FA.

1st Lieutenant Jacob Olson, US 3rd Infantry Division, "enjoys" what passes for a holiday feast on the British front, somewhere in the Yorkshire Dales on Christmas Day, 1943. (image courtesy of the Jacob C. Olson Presidential Library in Eau Claire, Wisconsin).
The public affairs officer asked him to smile. Needless to say, this picture didn't make it into any newspapers (at the time).
(Happy Holidays!)

A soldier in the army of the US-backed Democratic Republic of the Arabian Peninsula (aka "DRAP") stands watch along the border with Oman during the ongoing rebellion in that neighboring absolute monarchy. His weapon is a US made Browning M15 Heavy Automatic Rifle (HAR).
Been a hot minute since I did some Black Sun lore fluff, so there you go (been working on things behind the scenes though).

I like big birds and I cannot lie
(Dog, how is it that I can sketch a CH-47 Chinook heavy-lift helicopter somewhat competently, but I can't sketch grass for the fucking life of me, goddamn.)
