Re: Please have a look ! ---- No ! ;(

I've set up this simple Facebook page for possible use if this forum does go down:

https://www.facebook.com/groups/2249579618818213

The top photo is S/Ldr Johnny Wells of 609 Squadron, who led 609 in the D-Day landings period. The Goat is the famous squadron mascot, 'William de Goat'. William was regularly promoted, and by the end of the war had reached the rank of Air Commodore!

Re: Please have a look ! ---- No ! ;(

good stuff John

A small group of us are however in communication with Ruy. The people are there who can take over, it's just a question of ironing out the finer details.... but hopefully we can get something sorted out.

Rich,
I hope it works out so that this forum remains in existence. I just set up that Facebook page as a backstop position should your group not succeed, as there is so much excellent information on here, and I (and I'm sure everyone else) would wish to see the continuation of the sharing of information on this site, or elsewhere. Should you succeed, I will simply close that Facebook page.

Re: Please have a look ! ---- No ! ;(

I've joined the Facebook page and I suggest others to do the same, just to get in touch and have the latest news, if this forum indeed shuts down in a couple of days.

FYI, I've posted a progress update regarding the TOCH archive in the General forum under the Community section.

Unhappy Re: Please have a look ! ---- No ! ;(

I have already posted thanks along with what might be the final question ever posed on this forum, http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/showthread.php?t=66583 , but it is worth repeating the thanks here. Ruy, Nick and John, every person who has ever used this forum owes you a debt of gratitude. Gentlemen, and a sadly small number of ladies, it has been a privilege to have your company. Messers. Vasco and Venter, thank you for doing everything you can to save what is capable of being saved. Anyone who wishes to contact me is welcome to do so, on my Substack, The New World Crisis: https://newworldcrisis.substack.com/ Regards, Dan

Re: Please have a look ! ---- No ! ;(

I have been a member of TOCH since the early beginnings, I really hate to see it go. If it does anyway and there is no follow up, I want to thank Ruy and many others who made this forum happen and creating a great community of Luftwaffe enthusiasts.

All the best,
John
