The below has been encountered when recently looking up the site of
british-forces.com
Note: This site has shut down. Unloading is now complete.
This has nothing to do with the near-closure in February 2001.
The bandwidth allocation has been exceeded by a full third suddenly for no apparent reason.
I cannot sustain the financial penalties this entails and do not have the time necessary to alter the site to the extent this would require to maintain at the moment due to other commitments.

I suggest you visit
World War II; A British Focus
Land forces of the Britain, The Empire and Commonwealth
Britain's Small Wars and other valuable sites.
