"Added Col. Gore and Col. Priestley to the People Section and Captain Clarke to the H.E.I.C section of Tim's Collection page" I'd noticed Edward buying his promotion up to Major from Captain but did not realise he had got to Colonel - maybe it was not him but his father. Time for dinner. Bryan Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
