The general's grandson
Mike it would be great if you could pass the info on to the general's grandson. He may already be aware since some family members are in the mix but it sounds like he would be a great resource. Thanks.

Hi japes
it's easiest to keep your nickname at the top but go into user CP and add a perminent signature then your name automatically appears at the bottom of all your posts.

It appears there are about 75 tables taken out of 100 available for vendors and displays. Vendors range from books to militaria, displays from cap badges to First War aircraft parts. Hope they get a good turn out for a worthwhile cause.
