Gentlemen of the LSTBG - you know who you are ....
Several things
Firstly , in honour of his return, Porta has been elected to this elite bunch of Kameraden , he needs no introduction and his ability to quaff if without dispute. Wilcommen, get the banner up on your sig mate . Look forward to seeing the yellow topper again.
Secondly , and equally as important , a rough count of who's bringing what for Friday night ? Kermit and myself will be on the red vino , flasks are no doubt being filled , but are we all happy to stick with wine or do we need to organise bier as well ?
Thirdly , are we doing full mess dress , ie officers and bling uniforms ? As this is maybe the last time for a while that we'll all be together this year , I feel it entirely appropriate , however your thoughts appreciated as ever. I have pleasant thoughts of a nice BW photo of all us in front of the Zeltpalast before the sun goes down , complete with our Feldpolizie guarding the booze .
Finally Zeltpalast - Che you are der chef on this one , give us the who where and how of it bitte. Are we going for one large 24 zelt of a couple of smaller 16s .
Klop !
PS Del , PM me regarding Project Reich please.
