Greetings and Aloha!

Greetings.

I discovered this forum while doing some research.

I wear a GMT Master II "Fat Lady."

My wife gave it to me 21 years ago for my fortieth birthday.

It has kept impeccable time all those years, despite working in an extreme environment.
I have not babied it.

I served nine years in the Marine Corps and have flown helicopters, professionally, for 38 years.

I have flown EMS helicopters, exclusively, for 24 years.

Of note, I have also remained clean and sober for those 24 years.

I ride bicycles, a lot, almost to the exclusion of cars.

I enjoy discussing history and politics, and I have a long-time fascination with violence and non-violence in speech and writing.

I have joined this forum to ask advice regarding some issues surrounding the recent restoration of my "Fat Lady," and I hope my fellow forumites can give me some good advice.

Aloha.
