INTRODUCTION
In this issue we’ll ponder the question “what is a
hero” and imagine if the H-43 had never been designed and built, how would this
have affected your life?
A year ago Paul and I started putting out feelers to
see who would be interested in a Newsletter for former H-43 crewmembers. The result is now history! The Newsletter has
become an E-magazine and our readership is now some where
between 350-400.
We’ve established our fledgling Web Site at Pedro News and the H-43 Personnel
Directory is providing a reference to locate long lost friends and former crewmembers.
What is the future of the PEDRO
NEWS? Only you, our readers can determine the answer. I know that I’m repeating this, but without
your contributions, stories, photos, etc., we would not exist.
Lastly, the PEDRO Screen
Saver is complete. It contains 200 photos with descriptions, background
music and lasts 50+ minutes. For ordering information, send your request to the
PedroNews@frontiernet.net

WE’VE MADE SOME CHANGES!!!!!
We are now getting closer to a
real web site!!!!
For many of you the download
time has been a real issue.
Now, instead of downloading
the Newsletter all at once, you can go to the bottom of each page and select
the story you wish to read by clicking on that link. That will allow you a much
faster and enjoyable download. Since we are an E-Magazine we use quite a few
photos. They tend to take up a lot of space and take longer to load. We are
looking into ways to shorten your download time even more without having to
sacrifice the quality of our product. As a newcomer to web design, I’d
appreciate any help that anyone out there may give. At the present time we are
using the MS Word format but soon will be using a different program that will
allow us to be much more efficient.
Many Thanks
Paul
