Merry Christmas to all,
I hope to get up to Spokane sometime this year for an event. My sons and I have really enjoyed participating in the RPS events last year. We look forward to many more this next year,
Kevan, Andrew, William, and Matthew Bowen,

So, did everybody get what they wanted for Christmas? I got some col things.
Klaus, Meine Frau got me one of your 272nd coffee mugs. They are so cool
She got me te book "Tigers in the mud" (Now Ijust got to get it autographed by the auther. he only lives 30 minutes from me).
I also have Zelt tent stakes and poles, with a bag, also a assault frame bag. It was a nice Christmas.
Hopefully you all will have a good New Year! My New Year's resolution is to make it back to the states. Let see if that happens, Where I go is a different story.

I am trying to get an autograph from him in my book. Is there anything I can do for you? Klaus has my address, and I have a friend who knows him pretty good. I was going to visit him, but if you want the picture or something signed by him i can see what i can do. He lives 30 minutes away from me. he has an Apoteke called "Tiger Apoteke" go figure right?
I just need to talk to my friend and set up an appointment with Herr Carius to see when it is ok with him. Just give me a heads up. Like I said Sean (Klaus) has my address. Talk to you later. Otto

I got my son his HBT uniform for Christmas with a set of leggings. In addition I got a beautiful M1928 pack. Still have some funds left over but can't make up my mind what else to get. Most of the stuff I still need (wool shirts, boots, jeep caps, gloves) are out of my price range and deals are few and far between.
