Captain Braunsfeld Posted April 1, 2022 The soldiers of the Foreign Legion encountered two other soldiers, that were seemingly coming straight from Corrington. "Friend or foe?" "What?" "I said, friend or foe?" "That sounds quite old-fashioned. Wouldn't you ask for a password or watchword?" "Why is service in the Foreign Legion always so difficult? Ok, give me the password!" "Don't you have to give your part of the password first?" "Could be...." "Well then...." "Ok, then I say Canberra." "No, no, unfortunately that is not the password. Today's password is supposed to be Colorado." "Hang on, you are getting it wrong. If I say Canberra, then you must reply with the matching password." "But Canberra is not the correct starting word. You should have said Colorado." "And then?" "I would have answered Duplo." "That does not make any sense to me." "It seems you are not with Colonel Wattington's 31st Rifle Regiment?" "No." "Ok, then I read the map incorrectly. We should have turned left at that barren hill outside of town. Sorry for having disturbed you." "No problem, but move along." Spoiler This MOC and the minifgs are, of course, a homage/tribute to two fellow Eurobrickers. You are doing great stuff! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I must have missed the next challenge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
