We plan to publish a limited number of public service announcements in each issue of The Grenadier. Notices of new clubs and announcements of wargaming conventions are what we're looking for here. If you have something to sell, need an opponent, or anything of that sort, we have a classified ad section. Personal classified ads sell for 5 cents per word, with name and address counting as one word. Ads should be sent to the classified ad department of the Grenadier.
