Default D Day Birthday Boy......

All....we are in receipt of a message, via Facebook, that our wee Hanno has a birthday today, June 06th.....a D Day veteran, in a somewhat ironic way! Many great wishes and may many more come about. Thanks for all your hard earned efforts on the MLU Forum. Your a Gem!

Kindest regards......R obert

Hello Robert,

Don't believe everything you read on the internet (especially FB)...

Thanks anyway, but .... it's not my birthday. When I initially signed up with FB, it was as "Maple Leaf Up". I did this to claim the name as an MLU member reported a fake page. Later I changed the account to my own name and made the MLU group, but apparently did not change my birthday.

Hanno

Default Okay....maybe a mistake!

So Hanno....I guess I'll just unwrap the other 1944 HUP ZL, I was going to send you as a birthday present. Okay by me!

Happy birthday in advance then Hanno.

And a happy birthday and 'well done' to all of the admins/ moderators (and predecessors) and to all contributors.

Whilst I am just a 'lurker' on here, I am amazed by the knowledge that is shared in the pursuit of history. Well done Hanno, and all of you.

Please keep it up. Whilst I rarely contribute (and am not active in the pursuit), I love seeing what you people do.

Well done. Allan.

Andy, growing old is compulsory. Growing up is not!
