Hi Unregistered,

On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...

So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.

Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...

I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..

John D.

I served a temporary duty in the First Army and Fort Lee Honor Guard in 1968 and 1969 while I was on active duty stateside. Soldiers in the South and the Appalachian region suffered the greatest death rate during the Viet Nam conflict of any area of the country, as I understand it. I don't remember burying a rich kid and I don't remember meeting rich parents of the kids I buried. I know we are killing a certain number of company grade officers, now, as in Viet Nam. However, young enlisted men make up the greater number of deaths. I guess that will never change.
