Didi, "crackerjack" is an American slang term that means "excellent". :smiley:

Hi Didi,

CrackerJack - Just another way of saying something is fantastic.  I think in Deutsch it would be "Spitze!" that would be closear to what Brian is trying establish with his compliment.

Is/Was navy term for sailor who is sharp and knows what to do and does it right.   Hence sailor on Cracker Jacks box.

Precisely. Much obliged to you fellows for answering in my stead.

I so wish there was an upvote button for moments like this.

Fantastic model Didi! I'm already looking forward to what you've got next.
