[StartQuote] G'Day Fellas. Some of you will not like this post,and i really dont want to have to write it,but i feel i must. Over the last 2 odd years i have become very good friends with Russell Pullano,we talk nearly every weekend on Skype and exchange Christmas and Birthday cards. Russ is 86 years old and served with Ron 9 in the Pacific. Members of this board,talk about respect for Veterans and thank them all the time for their service,but when a vet tries to reach out and talk to people he gets treated like shit. Hes an old man and he enjoys sending emails to friends and reminiscing about days gone by.I know for a fact that members of this board have told him to stop sending emails and dont contact them,wheres the respect? Yes it might be annoying to recieve lots of emails from someone,but hey remember who there from,he wont be here forever and as many of you say hes part of the greatest generation. Russ doesnt come on the board much anymore because as he says,Modellers and Book Writers are taking over,and thats fair enough because the vets are passing.But if it were not for the Vets you wouldnt be Modelling and Writing. Please be a bit more tolerent of the worlds Veterans,they wont be here forever. Of course you dont have to take any notice of this gripe if you dont want to,but think about it. To all the Vets on this board,i salute you (and i mean it) Cheers from one cranky Aussie. Michael [EndQuote]
