Welcome to heitritter.com

I'll get around to organizing this at some point. For now, here's a great video of my band, the LA Scots.

Amanda and I were married on October 22nd, 2005.

My photo albums.

I had my 76 year old house repiped with copper, by MasterServ. It was supposed to take 3 days, plus patching, starting on 6 December. I have an album of the whole repiping process, and you can read about the whole thing here.

If you are looking for Wil Heitritter, you can e-mail me. I am the webmaster and a piper for the award-winning LA Scots Pipe Band. I'm also the senior webmaster at Warner Bros. Online. If you were looking for a big flashy site, sorry. This is just something I've been slowly piecing together over the years. I only registered heitritter.com so my email address wouldn't have to keep changing...

Since dvdtracker went commercial and won't let me list any of my new purchases without paying them, I've decided to do my own list. It's very simple right now, but I plan on adding more info than the release year at some point.

I'm a fan of WWII security ("Loose Lips") posters. Several of these were produced by the Office of War Information. I haven't been able to find a complete list of OWI posters, so I'm creating my own list.

Just when I thought all the good stuff had left antique stores for ebay, I found a somewhat rare harness for the German WWII RZ20 parachute (used by paratroops in the invasion of Crete, though this one was made after the invasion). I found it hard to find pictures of it online, so I thought I'd post some here for other collectors... I'm always looking for WWII combat uniforms and equipment to buy!

E-mail if you need a bagpiper in the Los Angeles, California area, if you're just one of the few people who can say "heitritter.com, hey, that's MY last name!", or if you have any stuff from WWII you want to sell me (or donate!). I'm especially interested in 6th Marines items from Hawaii to Nagasaki. I'd love to talk to any 6th Marines (or any 2nd Division) WWII vets!
