    I wonder if Les (DoctorD) would be interested in this - Its always nice to tell the world of the little known fact that British Forces were present on the American, Omaha beach where the most casualties were sustained.

    I heard somewhere that Forces reunited tried to take over another Service Site..... Is this true? If so our admin should be very wary of any posts from that quarter.

    Sapper, We did enquire with a site owner the possibility of purchasing a site, the site had not updated any information in quite some time and he did not wish to sell so we stopped enquiring.

    FR is often aproached by other websites who wish to buy FR, its called business, and in an attempt to improve and expand, companies do purchase other companies.

    And personally I enjoy the WW2Talk website, and would not wish for it to be ran in any other way than the way it is now, by the people who are running it.

    Now if you would like to keep this post on track it would be appreciated, especially as FR are not making any monies at all with this project but are spending monies to ensure that the memories of our D-Day Veterans (All Services including Merchant Navy) are not lost.

    Thank you kindly for that information. That is perfectly clear. I congratulate you on the attempt to keep the memory alive of those that sacrificed for the home land
    Cheers Sapper

    Al, I have sent you a private message with a link, if you use that link they will be able to assist you further.

    Your email subscription details on FR will be listed on your profile page, usually you would just need to change those settings to stop any unwanted emails from FR.
