In the Works
- I hope to upload video & photos of WW2 crew members at the
sub. I've converted 4 videos from VOB to MP4
files. I have another two videos to edit.
I'm looking at online video editing sites. I am looking at either YouTube or Rumble to host the videos.
- Increase traffic to the site. Visits have
dropped from 47K (2016) to around 9K (2022).
Good News! The latest stats
for 2024 show we've almost reached 17K visitors (see graph
below).
- I've weeded out all the old emails I had. I now have
a smaller set that I need to address and see if there is
any information I can post on the site.
Why haven't you
signed
the GUEST BOOK yet?
The website has surpassed 16,800
visits for 2024. The most since 2017 with 1.5 months left in
the year. Thanks for stopping by and please come back
often! |
