[Ansteorra] War update

[Kimberly Koch]

You're quite welcome! *My* thanks go to our king and
queen, who wanted to share the happenings at the war
with those of us at home, and made sure that they or a
member of their entourage took a few minutes out of
their busy war schedule every day to call me with an
update.

It was a lot of fun getting those daily phone calls,
and now that every one is home, I'm looking forward to
hearing lots of first-hand accounts on this list!
