Can I join as a Marine

Actually @WardellStephenCurry after thinking it over you can use a military aircraft if you would like. It is certainly very fitting for the situation.

Only 2 days to the event!!!

Nobody has signed up yet and I don’t want to have to cancel it. We will be exploring some fun little-used airports in Europe!

Last call for signups!

If nobody signs up by tomorrow morning I will cancel the event!

Just for clearing false information: Finland entered already in 30/11/1939 in the 2° world war against the Soviet Union with the Winter War (counted as part of the WW II) ;)

Unfortunatly this is event is cancelled due to a lack of interest.

I will create another This Day in History event with a different historical event for next weekend. Hopefully we can get more people to that one.
