    Thanks guys.

    An encore eh? I'll show a pic of myself (really Greg.S) wearing my Artillerie majors Doeskin tunic and Visored cap. When I can afford to--I'll send a few copies of pics to Kai or Volkbert--so they can post them here. Ive been itching to post three newer pics in particular--all three show German soldiers with Castles in the backgrounds.

    I wonder who will be the second to reach 6K? ;)

    Stevin--hopefully the PLM :D but I would be satisfied with a selection of medals from my little collection and a ribbon bar as my personal awards. I just dont know what Otto and Peppy have to do to make them--but I imagine its alot of work so I cant pester them into making it for at least another 5,996 more postings. :D

    Cheers Carl! Your Pour Le Merite looks good around your neck. :D Here's to 6,000 more posts, and thousands more beyond that.

    The list of thousand "sortie" members is growing. If two years ago someone were to tell me we would have a half dozen 1,000+ members I would have said: "hopefully!" Now that we do, I'm "hoping" to be able to keep up with everyone. :D

    Congratulations to Carl and thanks all for their continued memmbership and input. We make a fine team indeed! :D

    Congratulations Carl, I toast you with a...Dr. Pepper! (Please note that the name Dr. Pepper has nothing to do with Peppy) :D

    I guess one has to say the usual army congrats form: " You´re starting to look like a Christmas tree..."
    :D

    Well, here´s a toast to you and another 6,000!
    ;)

    Thank YOU all, and MOST of these postings would not be here if it werent for a great group of guys and gals posting here.

    I cant wait til I see more and more with these decorations. I think you all deserve them too. Heh heh heh--I wish I had the knowledge and powers that be--to give you the awards that are more in your areas of interest.

    Luckily for the Christmas Tree--luckily all my "awards" are in the Prinzen size and not the actual size--or I wouldnt have the room for any more of these.

    Thank you for your support. [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
