      Toujours Pret Neil,
      Welcome to the new DragoonBase, the new Base has plenty of newer features, lots of sub-groups,(ie,F-Trp,Amberg,Medics,etc.) and links for 2nd Cav News and History.
      Robb Russell has posted some tips for navigating the site (ie,photos,links,ect) in the Forum.
      If you need any help, you can contact Robb, or myself, or just yell out, another member may be able to help you.
      And our only wish, ‘Keep it clean’, use our Real names/with Pictures(pix from back in the day, work best for searching for Brothers, but any picture will do.), and that you tell all your friends about the new DragoonBase.

      Thanks Again for joining,
      Jesse Kelley
