• 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.

     

    If anyone has difficulties logging in please contact me at sixthvanguard@gmail.com.

     

    Thank you for your support and patience. I know it has been a loooong road.

New Gebirgsjäger Book

Grüß Gott Gebirglers,

Just got a copy of this new Concord book on Gebirgsjägers written by Gordon Rottman with excellent illustrations by Stephen Andrew. I highly recommend this book to everyone interested in Gebirgstruppe. It is packed with all unpublished photos that I have never seen before.

Berg Heil und Horrido!
 
Grüß Di' Bergkameraden,

Good to hear that this book is a hot seller. I think one of the best things about the book is that it has a lot of photos of 'Mulis' (MOO-lees = mules), packsaddles and Tragkorb (wicker baskets), as well as other pack loads...which, of course, are near and dear to my heart! :icon_lol:
