Hi,

Thanks for the interest in my book. It is currently at the printers, but will still need a few weeks to print and then make its way to the US. I published the book myself and not through Papjay. Once teh books are printed and are on their way by boat, I will make some announcements here of how to order, prices and other details. Stay tuned.

Thanks guys!

Tom

Boat? You cheap bastrad! I thought for sure it would be a para drop!

[Tom Yanacek]

Here is a picture of the first shipment en route via Chinese ocean-going Sampan. Their landfall should be any year now.

All kidding aside, best wishes with your new book, Tom.

Perhaps this will be my Christmas present to myself.

Once the books are printed and are on their way by boat

Jeez they will probably be hijacked by Somali pirates.

Hahahhaha, that is excellent Tom

1000 Paratrooper badge books would sink a boat like that, at 624 pages these books weigh about 5 pounds each! I considered putting a small set of training wheels on each book for ease of carting it around at shows...

Hi guys,

Well the day finally arrived, the books are here!! They arrived on Thursday and what a sight, I am really happy for the way they turned out. I know you guys will be too. Man, this book is heavy!!

Thanks very much for everyone's patience. I have already mailed out all the Limited Edition copies, thanks again for all the pre-orders. The first 50 LE books went out on yesterday morning, and the other 50 went out this morning. I will now be packaging up the regular books and will be mailing those out on Monday, so you guys should start receiving them next week.

For all your guys that will pick their books up at the SOS, I have them packed already and look forward to seeing you guys in a few days.
