• 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.

Amazing life Mr. Bauer has led. Very fortunate to have been captured when and where he was and interesting that he and his family were embraced by the occupation forces so quickly as "American" Germans. I have feeling if he had been captured by the Russians we wouldn't have gotten to see this description of such a fantastic life. Great story.

Very Nice Story and a great history lesson. Liked the picture of the F-15 Eagle from Bitburg behind him. Was station there for 10 1/2 years and worked on them.
