Phenomenal Men Of The Web

The War Amps of Canada is a charitable organization that has existed since 1918. It's original purpose was to help returning war amputees adjust to society, and learn to cope with the problems and prejudices presented to them as a result of their disabling injuries. It has since grown to also add Child Amputees as well. Click on the banner above to visit their website. Please help them out in any way you can.

For those of you who don't know. I, Albert Lowe, the author and creator of this site, am a Citizen of the United States of America. I joined the above web rings, some at invitation from the owners because this site is primarily dedicated to the memory of a Famous Canadian World War One combat Pilot.

If, by some fluke you think I am trying to BE Canadian, I apologize. It is not my intent to pretend in that fashion. I do have a lot of respect and admiration for Canada as a nation and as a people. However, I am also very proud of my own Country men and women and I do not want anyone to think otherwise.

Please, just enjoy this site for what it is, a tribute to brave fighting men and women all over the world, in general. And to one man, William Avery "Billy" Bishop in particular.

Thank You.

P.S. IF you are a Michigan Resident, and you've been thinking about applying for your Concealed Pistols License, check out this site!!!

ATTENTION PARENTS!!!

This is a military history related site. Consequently, it talks about violence as related to wartime activities. So, if you are concerned about what your children are seeing on the Internet, consider that this site may have content that may not be suitable for pre-teens(But in all honesty, it's pretty well toned down). So, if you are surfing with your children present, please review my web site privately first and then determine whether you want your children to view this web site or any of it's contents.

While my site is rated with ICRA and SafeSurf, it only works if you have the proper software, and are using it. Currently, (to the best of my knowledge)only Microsoft Internet Explorer has built-in provision to block rated and unrated pages. Please check and see if your browser has this capability. If not, there are programs you can add on that will give you this ability.

This site was registered through DirectNIC.Com.

And now, assuming you've scrolled down this far, for the really sad part. This is where I ask you for money. Yes, believe it or not, it actually does cost me money to keep this site up and running. Normally, I wouldn't bother asking, but I have to do SOMETHING to try to offset the cost of this site, until my financial situation gets better.

It's really very simple. IF you can afford to give, then please do so. IF you can't. That's ok. I know EXACTLY where you're coming from. But really, any little bit will help. It costs me a minimum of $10.00 a month for this. And when you figure in how much time and effort I've put into this site, that makes it nearly priceless...for me anyway.

But honestly, if you can afford to help me out, once in a while, just click on the icon above and donate a dollar. And if you can't, well, I hope you're in better shape than I am, or at least headed toward being in better financial shape soon!
