Hello Guys and Gals


Recommended Posts

Hi I am new to the forum and from what ive seen so far

my compliments to the organisers and the moderators for doing a great job

 

I am Davey and run a mobile museum in Good ole Northern Ireland

and hope to secure a permanent base in the near future

 

this has all been done from my own pocket as i started collecting since the age of 8 when my grandfather and namesake gave me his great war stuff

 

and as the years progressed i found grandad on my mothers side had also served in WW2

 

you can see what I am about at

 

www.waryearsremembered.co.uk

 

ive been visiting Rex at the War and Peace show for about 15 years now

 

and have met some great people on the way

 

but as with every thing no one man can be an expert at every thing and rely on you ole sweats and the guys who have done it before for support

 

i look forward to becoming part of the community if you will have me lol

 

cheers

:-)Hi Davey ,

Welcome to the forum ,

There's an Irish connection with our family ,

The man was a Belgian soldier , captured at Mai 1940 , set free at December 1940 , managed to get to the UK , got to a training base for Belgian soldiers in Ireland , met his future wife over there , Eileen McDaid , who served as an army nurse , they were both sent overseas , acomplished the European campaign , and finally the got married after the war ,

so far my story,

cheers:-)
