I have adopted a view that if people don't tell us about themselves when they join us, there's no point in announcing they have joined because there's nothing to say about them.

Welcome to new member PB, who writes us: Hi, my name is Paul Baker. I'm an Australian veteran currently living in the Philippines researching Australian military history here. I proposed and designed the Australian Philippines Liberation Memorial in Palo, Leyte, and the RAAF Catalina memorial on the Bataan Peninsula. I was also recently involved in identifying the remains of RAAF Catalina A24-64 which crashed on Cape Calavite, Mindoro. A good friend and I are in the planning stage of searching for RAAF B-24M Liberator A72-191 which went missing between Kota Kinabalu and San Jose on Mindoro on 25 March 1945.

Welcome to Falcon5, John Stewart.
He writes us by way of intro: My father was born in Sternberg Army Hospital (1926) when his father was stationed there. My grandfather served in the US Army from 1917-1952. My father served in the US Navy from 1943-1979 (some of this was USNR time). I served in the US Army 1983-1985 in the USAR, and then on active duty in the US Army 1985-2010. I am my family's genealogist and a military history buff. I am a retired Colonel, who works now as an Army Civilian. I am in the selection process to be a doscent at the new National Museum of the U.S. Army at Fort Belvoir, Virginia.
Yes, I had to look up doscent, so I'll save you the trouble.

Welcome to jayveemdr of Quezon City, Metro Manila who introduces himself thus:
Hello! I am an architecture student and I would like to have the opportunity to talk to everyone or anyone interested in Fort Drum. I plan on making a design on the adaptive reuse of Fort Drum, as either a shrine of honor, like the Colossus of Rhodes, or a historical tourism site with an integrated museum. I have long been interested in history, local, world, ancient, war, and have been to the concrete battleship website before, but the reason I am making this inquiry now and registering as a member, is because I am joining a competition and will appreciate the responses from similarly interested people in the forum.
