Greetings to PF
 

Hello Patriot Files,

It's been a long time since I have been on the forum, but I wanted to say hello. A lot has happened since last being on in 2010. I am at the dissertation phase of my Ph.D. and am quite happy to be getting closer to being done. I have gotten more active in community activities related to veterans and military history, as I now am the District Commander for the 9th District of Minnesota, Sons of the American Legion. I am also volunteering as curator for a local military heritage room at a local history museum. I have also entered the world of reenacting, which is a lot of fun.

I am still in Civil Air Patrol and have recently become squadron commander, which is quite exciting. Currently, I am working in the university library in the Department of Special Collections, where I am helping with a collection related to the 164th Infantry Regiment, ND National Guard. I love it, but am still looking for something that pays more than minimum wage. Anyway, I hope everyone is doing well here and I hope to be a little more active. All the best to the forum in this new year.

Daniel Sauerwein

Welcome back.

Thanks Neil, I was looking at another thread started by Coachman and was amused to see the backup PF2 was still a topic of discussion a year ago. I haven't checked up on that little project in about three years.

Though, I wish they all could come back over here and rejoin the fun (excluding anyone banned by admin.), I am amazed that they have kept up the thing, since it was meant only as a backup place for you all to go when this site experiences any lengthy downtime. Oh well, I am glad that I made some other folks admins. to keep it up.

Thanks for all you are doing and have done Dan.That wannabe on this site caused quite a stir awhile back. Been 13 years since I first Started on Veterans . com , still have brothers now from then. Thanks again

Darn Dan, it sounds like your putting 25 hours into a 24 hour day and thank you for all your doing. Don't know how you do it but it's great seein' you back here. We missed you. Lost a few wannabe's in the shuffle about the time we saw you last but the cream of the crop's still right here at the Number1Patriotfiles. Anything else is just a WishIwuz.
