Combat Engineer Forum
Many moons ago when I started my VI Corps Combat Engineers of WWII website, I also began a forum, which currently has 2,336 members registered. Our members have made a total of 31,138 posts in 5,423 threads. I’m always pleased to see the amount of traffic it receives on a daily basis, even after all this time.

The shop did very well and received five-star reviews from my all my customers. But this year things ground to a halt, so I placed it in vacation mode (took a hiatus) for several months. Several friends said, sometimes it helps to take a break, and I was okay with that…
Eurasian Hoopoe
I stumbled upon this beautiful new bird on YouTube and am now a subscriber to Korean Birder. I had never heard of this species, so was delighted to learn about it. Korean Birder gathered some fine footage in a park in South Korean over a span of three days, including a hilarious segment of a magpie’s avid interest. Seems it was a first for the magpie, the photographer, and me…
