panzerkyle Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 Well, I lost my source of employment today, so I'm afraid all my remaining fuel and funds will have to be re-prioritized into a job search. Sorry to have to tap out at this crucial point for the Allied forces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barca Posted July 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 panzerkyle, Sorry about your situation. Been there several times. Know that getting new job can be a full-time drag on your time and energy. Let me know if there is anything I can do. If you want to meet for coffee, I can offer some job-searching tips. Look forward to seeing you again when cash flow is reliable and you have the time and energy to jump back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazarus Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Greetings comrades excellent news from the front our attack a merville was a crushing success destroying both the airborne and the 51 highland divisions. Bad luck for the 51 3 times destroyed in one war. The tommys right flank is now crushed all we have to do now is roll up the beaches and drive the last of the rats back into the sea. There is movement in the American sector but high command is confident that they can be contained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZEKE Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 I'm pretty certain we'll be doing Battle Arrow #9 tomorrow. Nice to see someone working one of the other US areas. I've been working the 2nd Armor Div with 4th Inf Div angle on the far right flank of Utah Beach. And I know there has been lots of work being done on the British side.
