Pardon the dust while the boys rebuild the site.
The board will be in a state of disarray as I get things sorted out, for a little while at least.
The new incarnation is using Xenforo as the system software. It is much like what we are used to, with a few differences. I will see about making a FAQ to help point out the differences for the members.
One IMPORTANT difference for all of us old timers is that the 'mail' system is replaced with what are called 'conversations'/
There is no 'Inbox' or 'Out box' or 'Sent' folders anymore.
Think of Conversations as private 'threads' or topics that don't exist in a forum, that you start with another member. NOTE: Conversations can include more than one member if you or someone else in the conversaion, likes.
Takes a little getting used to but I am sure you all can get a hang of it.
Only a slightly modified default default Xenforo style is available for now. Once the new SAG style is ready it will be available.
All existing users should be able to login with their usernames and passwords once the site goes up.

Thank you for your support and patience. I know it has been a loooong road.
dear friends, I deliver this lieutenant colonel of the 12th Battalion Devonshire Regiment - the Lieutenant Colonel Dick Stevens was the battalion commander on the evening of June 5, 1944
I got carried away, like Dunant, in a little diorama Her Majesty's Royal Medical Corps - so you can heal the wounds on the abraded fingertips to keyboard usage in the surf at this site - the character is a "private" of the parachute field ambulance shot directly as many other bodies by gliders...
after two years in the desert of our Lieutenant Welsh Regiment, tanned like a native, fires a signal flare to his battalion stationed behind the Roman ruins!!!!
This Lieutenant of the Royal Navy was embarked on the battleship Nevada ( USS BB-36 ), a few days before D-Day - he supplied the MK II sextant and the war weapons of the US NAVY
