• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

    The Staff of SOH

  • Server side Maintenance is done. We still have an update to the forum software to run but that one will have to wait for a better time.

A salute to an old SOH member

I guess that I should have made it clear that I too do not know if he has passed away, my apologies to all SOH forum members by unintentionally promoting that he had passed away.

It's just been years since we have heard from him. IIRC he was in his 80's way back then.
I know that he loved the Curtiss SB2C and that there were several "discussions" here, as hot as they can get, about the old Navy workhorse vs, the Dauntless.
You know what happens when you assume something.
I liked the ol' grumpy bear, if I'm allowed to say so.
