I know it has been sometime since I posted on this section of the board, but here is an update on the vendor. I seen Jim this past week and all is going good. He plans to have a website up and running in early 2008. He is currently working with suppliers and making contacts for equipment and such. He has quit a bit of stuff , but dosen't know the full interest in the hobby yet to spend his serious money. His mailing address will be in Pa. I told him to set up some booths at events and maybe some shows (MMT) nad such and get the feel and spread his name.

No...it's top secret!!
We don't want anyone to know where or what is available. If he sold his stuff he'd be out of business, then what would happen to Korean War reenacting???

Okay!!! Here we go! I know it has been some time since I put anything on this post. I have spoken to Jim and he feels the interest is out there. So , everything is a go! Jim, has asked me to partner up with him on this venture, so with a little bit of money I have squirled away and a very understanding wife, I decide to do just that. We have made some intial contacts for uniforms and gear and are heading in the right direction. We hope to be on line by April of this year if not sooner! So with that being said any help from you guys will be great. If you could email me directly any gear or uniform I items that you believe are the most important to the hobby please do so. I have a general idea as does Jim, but any feadback you give us would be great! Please P.M. me directly and I will respond as best I can. We will be based out of Pa. So many of you will not be far away. Thank you very much and I will keep you posted as you all P.M. me and as things go forward.
Sean
