We are having some issues with the modem for the Forums webserver. We are going to replace it today between 12 and 2 EST. If you lose your connection, be paient we should be back up and running today.

As far as I know, the Bulova A-11 was used by the US Navy, USAAF and the British RAF. Some researchers believe that the lumed version was issued only to the US Navy.
