AKA: Popski’s Private Army
So, I have always been a fan of the LRDG and British 8th Army [Desert Rats]. I recently read a book that mentioned Popski’s Private Army and then picked up his Autobiography. I really want to build this group in Bolt Action, but cannot find enough information on Strengths, Vehicles used and in what quantity, or weapon load outs. I am hoping someone here can point me in the right direction or reach out with some information on the structure of the PPA and an equipment guide.
Anyone?
Lieutenant Colonel Vladimir ‘Popski’ Peniakoff
Resicast makes a couple of conversion kits in resin ( 1/35 ) that might give you an idea on how to add kit to your jeeps
The gun jeeps look rather simple , aside from adding stowage every where , they changed/ removed the passenger seat up front with seat from the rear . The flame thrower version ( Warlord resin kit parts maybe ? ) was a one off . The pictures of actaual vehicles I have found are rather grainy , being 60 plus years old who’ld of thought , but the re- enactor type vehicles seem to look the part . Popski’s book might be something to get as well , seems to be going cheap on various book sites . There was also a few comics that covered PPA , might be good for a giggle
