    I don't think mine had anything to do with Paper Patch though, I misread the title when I posted them originally.
    but thank you!

    it's a double themed month.

    February 2017
    Black Powder Paper Patching ...and Wheelguns, Pistols and Handcannons

    I am using the individual forum titles as the monthly topics (going from the top down), starting with Black Powder Paper Patching, but since that isn't one of the most common forums, I'm going to include the last forum, Wheelguns, Pistols and Handcannons

    I'll throw this in here, Gramps decked out in his flight gear and a couple other photos. He flew Jenny's and was getting ready to train in Spads but then the war ended.
