There was one blank post in the middle, not that it mattered, but everything else looked fine.

Each page is complete on mine John. Each section has a separate scroll down feature, which is different from the main screen.

Very nice articles, John! Especially thanks for the drawings with measures and other pictures.
And like the others I cannot see the page 33. After 32 next is 34 and further. But post is great nevertheless.


Alex.

P.S. Interesting avatar you've got. Who is depicted on it?
My avatar is a bugler from Troop B, 43rd Reconnaissance squadron, 3d Cavalry Group (Mechanized). Basic training at Camp Gordon, Georgia, March-November 1943.
