Professionally done, but one can certainly see a potential confusion down the road when we refer someone to this site.

Yeah, these people - whoever they are - have been around for a while but they haven't done much. I find it interesting that they're using the WW2 "Maple Leaf Up" ID to cover - for example - Vimy Ridge, which while not inappropriate is historically inaccurate. I don't know whether they copied me or thought this up on their own, but I'll find out sooner or later.

The contact is a guy named Glenn Warner out of Toronto. It's registered to a film company called "The Whole Shebang Productions Inc." which has had the domain name since 2004. They're also on facebook & twitter.

Their intent seems good but we'll see how much of that is to sell swag.
