Hello Drone_pilot,

Thanks for placing the ‘Rank Recognition’ back up on the board. It doesn’t seam like two and half years ago I started placing snippets of my anecdotal writings up on the board and they are now deep in the archives of the site. I’ve just visited it and had a quick read. Within the book I’ve add some more and alters other things. The book is finished as such, I’ve just got a few photos to insert and then I will get it published in the New Year.

Silky
