What's up with TOTW? Tried to visit and the site is down due to a Domain issue.

I was on the old Tarawa Talk from 2000 until maybe 2016.  I spoke with most the Tarawa vets there.  Where did the website go?  My dad had a page there.  I just found some of his muster rolls from Saipan/Tinian that I have been looking for since he died.  I wanted to share and now cannot find the site.  I wanted to get this info to Jon Stevens.

Sadly, there is still no link to Tarawa on the Web.

I hope it returns.
There was a wealth of information there.

No havnt heard a thing. Last time we chattered, he did say everything was backed up. Im more than happy helping getting it back up. Its the least we can do for all 2nd Div Marines, and familys. They took fire crossing a reef, all we have to do is get TOTW back up. Souldnt be that hard lol.

Can anyone get the information from Tarawa on the web? Or have information from it? One of the pages on the site was dedicated to my grandma's brother John Gross.  My email is mallerbenjamin@gmail.com any help would be appreciated thanks.

I haven't had any updates from Jon in a while. Not sure about where any restoration of TOTW is if at all yet. I, too, understood that all the data was safe. Will try to get more info. Re: John Gross... Before Covid hit I was actively getting more info from NARA. Gross was awarded the Navy cross. This picture is of Orville Broeker. John Gross is just to his right. When I can try again, I will try to see if there is a single picture of him in the lineup.A photo of Gross was definitely taken; just don't know if NARA has it like this one.

OK... For whoever sees this, try out TARAWAONTHEWEB.COM. (NOT .ORG) Jon is going to try can get .ORG back but for now, the .COM version appears to be working!! Going to look around to test the data but, again, it looks good :)
