A wonderful group and with magnificent history. As Kevin said, they don't get that coverage like the Fighter or bomber crews but had an even important task to do. Thanks for showing.

Dear loyal members, I've introduced a Subscription level to our Forum. It has been several months now without almost any Donation with exception of two regular contributing members however costs of our Forum hosting reached a new scale. I'm paying as off now €130 a month for hosting costs other costs not included (extra security, domain name..) earlier on it has been bearable since our Forum didn't was that big but since a few months more posts were regularly made as well as images posted. Since nothing gets deleted (or there has to be a very good reason) the size only increase and so do the member numbers and so on... I hope with the subscription to make these costs bearable and to improve the Forum. There have been a few downtime because of the size our server / database is getting and I've regularly to update it (increase memory which costs money) and when I moved away from a less reliable host to a dedicated Forum hosting service. I want to thank all of you who made donations before. I hope via this new system to give you more in return. I've done raffles in the past, where I gave away items for free or for a little sum, I bought these from my own money etc. to give something in return. I'm planning when the Subscription are successful to do this again and a few little extras. I also want to improve the Forum as well since I currently do it all myself because of the monthly costs I already have to make. I can add plenty more advertisements to the forum to bear a little more of the costs but I'm choosing not to, in order to increase my user's usability of the forum.

Thanks to @Michael1000 for supporting our Forum !

No problem, Justin ? Feel free to send me whenever you need my help.

For me it's no problem to help out, let me know. Do know that Belgium postal service is not the cheapest, so I send it to you, it will cost you more than some other countries.

Thanks, Richard.

Latest purchase, Parade Waffenrock for a Schirrmeister in Infanterie-Regiment 154. The button on the shoulderboards reads "14" so 14. Kompanie, right? Hope you like it. Room for 3 awards and 1Ribbon bar.

Does anyone know the whereabouts of Stewy? Anyone in contact with him or hear from him recently? Please, let me know.

Nothing new, and as you can see he also never replied or tried to contact me or others.

Great work, Jerry ! When will you be sending out autographs?

Can only agree.

Interesting lot, Richard! Thanks for sharing.
