Ran across this site this morning - ZAMZAR. They do online file conversions.
I didn't want to download yet another software supplement, which would allow me to open WPS files within Word or Open Office, so I visited the site and uploaded a WPS file (Microsoft Works), and had it converted to Microsoft Word doc.
Am waiting to receive it via email. Will let you know how it works out. This could be a very useful tool for me. I get so annoyed with WPS files! Arrgghhh!
I thought that I would share with you a few items from my collection of insignia. With this being a forum dedicated to the Engineers, I thought that I would focus on my Engineer items.
The unit crests represents the following units: 21st Engineer Regiment, 116th Engineer Regiment, 2nd Engineer Battalion, and the Engineer School. All of the insignia are of WWII vintage being either a pinback or screwback as fasteners. The officer's castle is also of WWII vintage.
The sea horse patch represents amphibious engineers, and the other patch represents the aviation engineers. This particular patch is the second variation, with the first variation showing a flying bulldozer with soldier with a long barrelled rifle.
I've just found an interesting WWII movie that is set during the Battle of the Bulge. It is called "Silent Night" and stars Linda Hamilton. In a nutshell, the movie is about three American and three German soldiers that find their way to a lady's cabin, and despite their differences, spend Christmas eve in the cabin and celebrate Christmas. If I am not mistaken, Hallmark produced the movie, and it is a very good movie.
