To help getting the permit renewed please write to the follwing and include in your letter the specifc info that I will enumerate.

It would be a terrible thing for living history to go down the drain, and to deprive future generations of the WW2 era. My generation will not be around too much longer, so please write and help to keep them flying
I would appreciate it if you would send me a copy of your letter. Also be sure to mention where you live.
