Thanks V2.
Thought I'd just add something here that might be of interest to some.
Back in '40 when my wife's father joined the army, they wouldnt let him or any one else with a Von name, put Von in front of his name in his pay book .
They said it was for his own protection, as during the 1st World War the Germans shot such soldiers in the allied armies as traitors if they were taken prisoner.
It wasn't until after the war that he assumed his full name again.
 
Hey welcome airborne. Haven't been around too much lately - in the process of moving still to a new base.

Loved your post of MV-22Bs. Awesome birds. Can't wait to start flying them!
 
Ripper mkloby. I have a big set of prints on file showing air refueling of the MV-22 in flight.
I will rat them out and put them up for you.
Here is one shot I have to go on with.
Good luck with your posting.

In the meantime it's Sunday morning here in Oz and I'm off to church with my wife.
I got some stuff to attend to when I am home later.
I will be resigning from the forum today.
Cheers mate.
