Hello

Hi all,
I guess I should introduce myself-My name is Matthew. Over the years Ive worn the Air force uniform as a reservist, run a historical society, ran military displays, started a re-enactment group, played drums in Af and AF Association Pipe and Drum bands. My passion is aircraft of ww2 and the 1950s-usually the more engines the better. I collect and service military radios from this era and enjoy operating them as a licenced amateur. You look like a fine group of people and I look forward to my time here.
Cheers

Welcome to the forum from Sunny southern California.
I like the signature and the part about the trophies.
