0:06.2	With me this evening is my good friend and Battlefield Guide Associate, Robert J. Laplander, who is also the well-known author of Finding the Lost Battalion Beyond the Rumors, Myths, and Legends of America's
0:23.9	Famous World War I Epic. Rob joins me this evening as he and I have an announcement to make.
