Wishing you many more, from all of us at DragoonBase!!!
Hello Jimmie,
Not too many of us from that time period. Would like to invite you to join us at the Oldtimers group. There are actually quite a few of us. You may find an old friend or make some new ones. We don't take a whole lot serious but when the right button hits, you never know what will come out.
