Thinking of...

In America, it's coming up on the long Memorial Day weekend.  It's the date that we have chosen to honor those that have given their life in defense of their country.  With out these brave men and women and dogs and other animals having paid the ultimate price, the world would be a vastly different place. 

My late daddy served the RAF in WWII as a Lancaster "bomb aimer".  He had many close calls flying over the Axis region.  He flew in support of the D-DAY Operations.  The world would be a vastly different place without people like him.  It was war time and everyone did what they had to do on the home front.  When I think about WWII I remember such movies as Patton, Saving Private Ryan, The Great Escape, Where Eagles Dare, The Battle of Britain, and of course the legendary 12 O'clock High.  I've recently been watching on my TIVO the stunning series "World at War".   

Daddy was awarded the DFC - Distinguished Flying Cross for his service.

So, this Memorial Day I will be giving pause and thought to those that have gone before me to make the world a safer and better place. 

On the Synchro32 front, things are going extremely well and the newest addition to the team Jean-Marie Darchicourt is coming up to speed very rapidly.  I had the pleasure of dining with Simon last night as he is in North America, his 2nd home, working with customers as always.  Unfortunately, the demand curve for Synchro32 dictates that Simon will be missing GIFA to attend to new installations.

The entire Synchro32 management team is looking forward to meeting up in just a very short time at GIFA.  This will be my first visit to mainland Europe.   Barbara Nolan Collins and her sales and marketing team have just done a splendid job with the booth build, new presentations, etc.  Trust me, there will be slews of pictures posted from this premier event.  At last count, I had heard that over 60,000 global metalcasters are due at this important event.

Until next time, see you on down the road.  Shane Allen
