Earl, I just wanted to say thank you, and Neil for all the work that you guys have done.This site is a great point of contact for all former Charlie Tigers.
It will be a great way for others to know about their fellow veterans. It has
been a long time for all of us since we were "Accross the Pond".We have
never had the chance to hook up as good as we can do now. Thanks again.
