All in all, I believe the Christmas party was a success and everyone had a fun time. First and foremost, we did the merger and the results are that 7th Panzer is now going away and we'll all become part of the new 53rd AufKlarungs-Abteilung (a part of the 3rd Motorized Infantry Division).
At this site you can register if you like and that will give you posting rights or just check it from time to time to keep abreast of unit activities and planned events. It's not really intended to be a discussion forum and I'd rather we continue to use Facebook for those purposes. But I like the webpage as it is a better way to organize things historically under topics. In particular please review the unit history section. As for the rank and awards section this will be under review by Heer Muller who might or might not make changes.
As a consequence of now knowing what unit to register for please take the time to visit the eventbright site shown below to register for your HRS membership. The password for February is "watchtower."

I expect members to register either as primary or secondary members of our new unit.
We discussed the upcoming events calendar and did awards and then watched movies and had discussions. Thanks to those who brought food and drink and arrived for the event. You can't have a party without members. Jurgen did a presentation on conduct and safety and expressed his goals for the new unit and if you couldn't make it perhaps ask those that did for more details.
There was also the usual flurry of trading and sales on display and some opportunities to p/u some impression items.
Next public event will be in May for now and they'll be plenty more on that and other events posted here and at our website. On paper, I will maintain the HRS charter but the ranking commander of our unit on the field is Leutnant Mueller and our next in rank is Oberfeldwebel Cederberg. I apologize for the naming conventions as I will need time to get used to the new membership roster. My brother will continue to lead the Recon crew (3). There will be further restructuring and additional rank changes announced in the coming year. Don't worry as we intend to grow not shrink.
Till next year..
