1/144 USS La Vallette DD-448 (Revell Germany)
My model shows the early World War II USS La Vallette as she appeared on 8 October 1942. The La Vallette is painted in camouflage Measure 22.
I modified the superb Revell 1/144 Fletcher Class destroyer kit with Nautilus photoetch sets, whaleboats, turrets, and their stern tub resin castings. I used 8 pound test fishing leader for the rigging and railings.
