TodayMessa Store has announced preorders for officially licensed Panzer Dragoon t-shirts. These t-shirts feature Azel wearing her Black Fleet jacket, the box art for the Japanese version of Panzer Dragoon Saga, as well as Kyle Fluge riding on the Blue Dragon.

I've spent an enormous amount of time buying, trying, returning and giving away black t-shirts that just weren't up to snuff. I've tried all of the major brands, a good amount of the boutique hype brands and a solid chunk of the 'Instagram basics' brands. The winner in my book is from Japanese stalwart Uniqlo.


Specifically, it's the Uniqlo U Crew Neck Short-Sleeve T-Shirt. This shirt offers excellent build quality that strikes a fantastic balance between wearability and structure. All too often I find that people's beloved t-shirt options fit me like a wet rag. I'm thicker in the torso than your average t-shirt model and wearing a clingy shirt makes me enormously uncomfortable. The additional structure provided by the thicker interlock-knit yarn is really welcome.


It also has the correct fit. It's not too boxy and oversized but fits just larger than true-to-size. I can't imagine you'd want to wear this one tight, so just buy your usual size. But if you do want to layer it tucked in under a sport coat buy one size down.


I've also tried many heavy-weight shirts from brands like Reigning Champ (the parent company CYC also used to supply Supreme's F/W heavy weight shirts which are really good quality). These heavier weight shirts offer the structure I love but die in the breathability department. Uniqlo has that nailed down. The U Crew shirt features a broader, but not scooped, binder neck collar and much better ventilation all over. They also stand up very well to washing, fading extremely gently and gracefully over time and increasing in softness. I recommend washing a couple of times before your first wear, especially if you're used to a pre-worn finish in your tees.


I've tried all of the colors that Uniqlo currently offers and the black is a personal favorite, though the 68 blue is a pretty incredible sleeper. It pairs really well with a camel cardigan and denim.


I prefer a no pocket tee because I am generally constantly layering fits and I find the pocket more often than not messes with the lines of a sweater, vest or jacket. Plain front tees are the way to go for layering.


There is also a woman's cut of the U Crew. If you like a super light-weight shirt and don't mind a closer drape then a close second is Uniqlo's Supima cotton shirt options. They're also very good and undoubtedly softer than the U Crew out of the gate.

The saying 'Achtung Panzer' (Beware Tank) printed on the t-shirt is the same as the name of the book written in 1937 by the Nazi General Heinz Guderian, the founder of German armored troops. The book 'Achtung Panzer' contains war tactics related to tanks. This war tactic 'Blitzkrieg - Lightning War' created by Heinz Guderian with tanks, was Nazis' main war doctrine during World War II. The Nazis had invaded most of the European countries using this tactic.


"The ignorance of being able to take the most representative piece of the motorized forces of the Nazi army, who had killed millions of people, and print it on a t-shirt, and doing it with the name of a book full of praises for these weapons, tells us a lot about the state of World War II and Holocaust legacy."


While on the online store many t-shirts with warplanes and weapons used during World War II prints on them are sold, there are also t-shirts with the StG-44 (Sturmgewehr 44), the first modern selective-fire assault rifle produced by Germany during World War II, printed on them.


On the approach march towards Medjez el Bab to begin what was to be the last battle of the North African Campaign, the composite force of both 1st Army and 8th Army under the command of Lt.Gen Brian Horrocks, who had distinguished himself with the "blitz' attack around the Mareth Line in order to capture El Hamma. Unfortunately, the American 2nd Corps under command of Gen. George S Patton had been badly mauled by an understrength 10th Panzer Div. and had allowed the two other Panzer Divs.the 15th and 21st. to escape and so this final battle had to be fought, but there was a slight problem.


There was an enormous wadi which had to be bridged and the enemy Artillery had registered this feature and consequently the engineers building the Bailey Bridge were falling like snowflakes, the wadi then acquired the nickname of "St.Peter's crossing".Thereupon a very 'plummy' English voice was heard asking "why does this Tunisian wadi carry an English name" ? this query was answered by an equally Irish broque " if you try crossing there to-day - you're sure to meet St.Peter"!


When the battlefield was cleared of much of the debris of war, the 21st British Tank Brigade was ordered to proceed to the area around Bone, which is now called Annaba in Algeria, to set up camp and to await reinforcements, and further orders. This was done and in very short order a camp sprung up on a hill some 20 miles south of Bone, this was all very regimental with paths laid out, stones lining the paths all properly white-washed,flag poles erected, notice boards appeared, the Tank park was set up with barbed wire all around with empty cans containing a few stones which would rattle when disturbed, to alert the guards in case anyone wanted to make off with a 40 ton Churchill Tank !


The small City of Bone was quite attractive as the war had by passed her wide treelined Boulevards and street cafe's where the speciality was fried egg on a bun washed down by the interminable muskatel. It boasted a cinema where we endured many a brigade lecture without nodding off, and it was there that Wee Wully Fenn from Glasgow learned not to place a Cadbury's dairy milk bar in his K.D.uniform shirt while watching "Mutiny on the Bounty" for the seventh time !


It was also in Bone that the so called "Salerno Mutineers" were incarcerated whilst awaiting the so-called "trial" at Phillipville further along the coast. This story has finally been told to the eternal shame of all who took part in that appalling charade of British Army Justice. Three sergeants were condemned to death and all the rest of the 190 odd were given very long sentences, for an incident which should never have happened and it was only by good fortune that the Adjutant General, Gen. Adams was visiting Algeria that the sentences were commuted. Nevertheless the men had the records follow them to their new units and life became unbearable for them and most ended up by deserting into the hills of Italy.A general pardon is still awaited for these men who were stripped of all medals, honours and service records.


But back to our new camp,each troop had three eight man tents which was quite luxurious inasmuch as only five men per tank slept there, ditches were dug to the usual depth of six inches all around to carry off the rain which we were advised was a very seldom ocurrence. These ditches were modified immediately after the first rainstorm to a depth of 24 inches all around, duckboards magically appeared in case anyone was lost in these ditches.

The rains,the subject of much speculation as the Sahara desert was not a million miles away and it was felt that all this rain could be channelled down there to it's everlasting benefit.The fact that we were running the Tanks up and down the hills all day long did not improve the situation as a 40 ton Tank creates a great deal of mud which, in turn has to be cleaned from all working parts !


Our squadron area was well laid out and we were complimented by a succession of new Regimental C.O's to a ratio of a new one every six weeks, why, we were never told.One C.O. was big on communications so it was wireless training ad nauseum, another was big on maintenance so the Tanks were run constanly, yet another was big on discipline so it was blanco and more blanco.
