About Helobubbas	English (USA)
The “HeloBubbas” is an outgrowth of the moderator’s original outlook email label list from the 1990s which migrated into the more original/more formal Naval Message Board E-Mail List on Yahoo Groups into the current HeloBubbas list hosted at www.helobubbas.com . The “Naval Message Board” was a small group of retired and former Naval Officers who were Naval Aviators with rotary wing roots, which began in the 1990s and has expanded over the years to include members from a cross section of sister service former and retired officers (Marine Corps, Air Force & Army), including allied foreign services from a variety of warfare communities. The “HeloBubbas” will continue its history of being open to all warfare communities, including our sister services and foreign allies. The “HeloBubbas” offers the opportunity for list members to comment using helobubbas@helobubbas.com about topical materials shared on the “HeloBubbas E-Mail List” by the list members or not. Although some of the material is contributed by the moderators, the whole concept revolves around all list members contributing discussion material.

This list is not for purely political discussion nor are pure political topics welcome on this list. The “HeloBubbas” is a closed and moderated discussion group.
