Netherlands East Indies Army - new site

[Bill Murray]

Evening Stellan:
Well, yes, one must always keep ones priorities in the right order so I am glad you are not abandoning your friendly pub.

For the moment all toolbars are in Swedish. As you say, not a problem for me but not likely to make it easy for non Scandinavians.

As you are will aware, almost all such sites offer some sort of choice, usually a national flag, for languages other than the one of the country of origin. Or, they choose to use the current "International" language of English. I know the French hate that but, well, there you are. The way the Chinese are going about building up their industrial base we may be well advised to start learning that language.

Let me not make light of your website, by the way. The efforts of folks like you and Nuyt are going to provide a very valuable look at bits and pieces of history that a few years ago none of us would have ever had a chance to review.

In that sense, I am really enjoying the opportunity to join or watch the many sites I have discovered in the last couple of years. I have a University Degree in World History which I thought rather a lot of until I started surfing the Internet and getting into discussions with Poles, Rumanians, Thais and yes even Swedes, Norwegians and Finns about their roles not only in WWII but in history in general. I now realize I learned rather little in University other than what the US system wanted me to learn. To use some old American slang, "I be lots smarter now".

Keep up the good work but don't forget your friends at the pub.
