------------- WE DID IT!
Two weeks ago, I started a bit of a Campaign to raise $1000 each, for two German heavy Minenwerfers.
As of Friday, March 3rd, the CGN Members have donated $1920 Dollars to this purpose, with several more EMT Donations and a couple of mail in Donations to be added to this total.
Therefore, I am closing the thread for Donations at Midnight, Sunday, March 5th but will accept any Donations up to that time. We will wait one week for any snail mail, and then make a draw for the two WOLVERINE SUPPLIES $50 Gift Certificates.
One of the Members here said "You did it!". I thought about this for a few seconds, then replied "No, I only had the idea and started it." The people who DID IT were the CGN Members who believed in me, and a good cause." " WE did it " is a lot more accurate.
I still have to straighten out a few of the earlier EMTs, (my bad on some instructions), and some more Donations are still in the system, so there will be a bit more for these Two Minenwerfers than we had hoped for.
After Sunday, with the Draw made, I should have the final numbers later on in the week.
I would like to thank everyone who made a donation to help do a bit of restorative work on these two Mortars. Obviously we can not completely restore them due to 100 years of exposure to the elements, and the great cost and time it would take, even if we could find the parts. But, it will help to preserve them a bit longer, and make people more aware of their importance in the History of our country.
