Feldwebel Halon arrives at Kalach

Gentlemen, Feldwebel Halon has successfully completed AF1. He didn't see the He111s that almost rammed him (does anyone ever see these first time...?) but apart from that he did very well.

Re: Welcome Guests.

I want to learn more and do it surrounded by lots of other friendly potential targets for the enemy. With some of our lot you'll be a potential target for friendlies... I suspect I'll be needing a suitably nautical nick name to distinguish myself from all you Crab-fats ;) Andrew? More appropriate w...
