Fallout Re: Question about Corps Expéditionnaire Français en Extrême-Orient, French Indoch

To add my two cents; I've also found several references to a "battle" in Dec. 1950 but as noted a month doesn't matter. What does is a year or two discrepancy as to when it was fielded by the French in the game. At Jan 1951 the case can be made for a change and the following refs will support your claim as to the planes that carried it for the French. I have other obligations to the "Boss" if he has time for them in Feb. so I can't take this on as noted already until the 2012/2013 campaign begins at the earliest. For the french wings site you might need to use the translator for the English version also for the Dien Bien Phu folks see the photo section and you'll know which one got my attention for the scenario.
