Pentagon
Hunt the Boeing! And test your perceptions!
As everyone knows, on 11 September, less than an hour after the attack on the World Trade Centre, an airplane collided with the Pentagon. The Associated Press first reported that a booby-trapped truck had caused the explosion. The Pentagon quickly denied this. The official US government version of events still holds. Here's a little game for you: Take a look at these photographs and try to find evidence to corroborate the official version. It's up to you to Hunt the Boeing!
In Memory
The memorial plaque will recognize American veterans who, like these, returned home to face their final battles:
Here's news about a project for which the VVA voiced strong support at
the 2001 National Convention in Greensboro.
The National Capitol Memorials Commission recently approved a location,
design and inscription proposed for the Congressionally approved Vietnam War
In Memory Memorial Plaque. The memorial plaque will provide year-round
recogntion on the grounds of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington,
D.C. for veterans whose postwar service-related deaths are not commemorated
on The Wall.
Please visit our website, which includes images of the proposed location
and plaque, the text of the VVA Resolution, and links to the website of the
American Battle Monuments Commission, officially designated by Congress to
accept private donations and accomplish the project.

Had a bit of a yarn with Tex Bryson (President of our Association) this afternoon regards the sites position in regards the Association, I can asure you's that my primary aim all along has been to bring both together Web site and Association thereby providing the best in current technology in keeping our brotherhood informed of all that is not only important, but by fostering a place where we can all catch up with each other,
As well you's can rest easy this form of comunication is fantastic but theres a need for both electronic as well as a printed magazine thereby catering for those who don't have a computer or the internet, we have according to our email address page about 76 who have offered their email addresses for further contact, but hopefully theres a lot more out there whose only news is what is cleamed out of our associations newsletter "The Blue Beret" and as such it will remain our associations primary source of information and the Web site to provide any urgent or critical updates deemed nessecary to a quicker responce or answer from the Associations membership.
I am not in competition with the Association but would consider the site an extension, a second hand in helping forefill the needs of our membership.
Regards The POM.
