Salvete omnes- as the subject states, it's time once again to nominate deserving members for the VEXILLVM Award- the award for "best overall contributor to research and reconstruction"- who do you think is continually posting useful and interesting information, references, and answering questions?
Previous awardees are Aitor Iriarte, myself, Robert Vermaat (Vortigern Studies), Mike Bishop, Dan Peterson, Matthew Amt, and Graham Sumner.
I'll start off by nominating Adrian Wink (Peroni) and Jim Bowers (Tarbicus), both of whom are an absolute wealth of interesting and thought-provoking postings and information
Who else do you think deserves this award? Seconders and repeat nominations are not necessary so if the person you were going to nominate has already been nominated, consider who else might be a good candidate and nominate him/her instead  Nominations will be accepted until Saturday 26. May, then there'll be 5 days to vote, the winner will be announced on 1. June, and there will be much rejoicing- yay!

Salvete.
My nomination is for Jim, but he has already been nomintaed, so.... I'm not sure if this award applies to greek military research and reconstruction as well; if it does, I think hoplite14gr definitely deserves such an award.
Valete.

Just wanted to support both these nominations- and what not everyone will see is the huge amount of help and info both bring to people via PMs and emails to RAT members separate to RAT. I've benefited hugely!
Cheers,
