Tiger504 Joined: 06/17/2014 Posts: 1314 Kalamazoo Bloody Tigers III.4	@ haselrig....I attempted to sneak in the last name (Kibler) of the pilot of my grandpa's B24. The pilot died when the plane crashed in a field in Austria in 1944. Kibler also happens to be the name of a long time umpire who grandpa always wondered if he was related to a man I know he considered a hero. I think it's a good idea to expand the database from areas that honor folks. I also think it's best to make additions/suggestions as easy as possible for Steve to implement.

Haselrig Joined: 04/13/2014 Posts: 2790 Novi Doubledays III.4	I'm not entirely sure, but I think it's commonplace for the last names to be capitalized for casualties isn't it? I don't know if there would be a list that could more easily be copy/pasted from. I'd offer to go though and retype them as well as cross check them for names already in the game, but I'm working on something very similar atm and I don't think my eyes would forgive me
