Tommy and his family own and operate The Dubliner, which is, in our opinion, the only real Irish pub in the Wilmington area, despite others laying claim to that fact. They are located at 1756 Carolina Beach Rd, Wilmington, NC 28401. Tel. 910-343-8342 (He has cold Guinness)
For those of us who love world football (yes, that's soccer to Americans), Tommy has all the English Premier League and European league games on live. Tommy, although an Irishman, is a Liverpool fan.
Colin supports Manchester United, but they still get along very well despite the century old rivalry between the clubs. Stop by, have a pint, meet the locals, and have a good time. Great pub, great people, highly recommended even if just passing through.

Col. Peterburs had a colorful career, from flying P-51 Mustangs in Europe during WW I (and shooting down our mutual friend Oblt. Walter Schuck in his Me-262), to service through the Vietnam War. However, joe's family history is also intriguing.
Excerpt from “My Memories” book.
LUFTWAFFE COUSINS
Although my Dad had told me that I had some cousins in the Luftwaffe, the information was sketchy at best. In 2002 I was contacted by a Luftwaffe officer/researcher who had detailed knowledge and documentation on two of my second cousins who were Luftwaffe fighter pilots.
Hans Peterburs Knights Cross Final Entry Log Book
Final Entry Log Book continued
Hans’ Log Book with Unit Assignments
He provided the following information: John Franc Peterburs had two sons Johannes and George. Johannes had seven children and George had ten. The sixth child of Johannes was Johann and two of his sons, Hans and Heinrich “Heinz”, were Luftwaffe Fighter Pilots during WW II. One of George’s children was a son named Wilhelm Bernard. Wilhelm immigrated to the United States in 1906, was married in 1910 and had nine children one of whom was a son named Joseph Anthony.
He became a Fighter Pilot in the United States Army Air Corps and fought over the skies of Germany during WW II. Hans started his flying career in December 1936 and flew mostly night fighters during the war. He flew extensively during the “Battle of Britain” achieving most of his aerial victories during night operations.
On 25 November 1942 after 220 combat missions and 18 aerial victories he was awarded the Knight’s Cross. He is also credited with a good number of tanks. On the 11th of January 1944 while flying his L.G. 190-3 “Yellow C” over Tommaso, Salerno, Italy he was shot down and killed by a Spitfire.
Heinrich “Heinz” Peterburs was a fighter pilot with about 300 missions and 22 unconfirmed aerial victories. “Heinz” was flying his Bf 109 G-6 and was engaged in a “dogfight” with American Fighter Planes near the small city of Töttelstedt north west of Erfurt on either the 7th or 8th of April 1945. Eyewitnesses of the “dogfight” tell how “Heinz’s” 109 had a large part of its wing ripped off and crashed into the earth at a steep angle. The inhabitants of the village found the canopy from the German fighter on the east side of the village. This meant that the pilot tried to bail out but due to the low altitude he was unable to escape from his aircraft and smashed into the ground.
In 1989 after West and East Germany became united again the East Germany became more accessible for salvaging groups who researched such fates of war. One such group located the remains of “Heinz” and his Bf109 on the 30th of August 2003. During the excavation every small piece of dirt taken from the salvage site was examined thoroughly Soon the first human remains were found and thereby it was concluded that the pilot was still in the machine. From the rubble it was concluded that the plane was a Messerschmitt Bf 109G-6 and gradually indications were found about the pilot. A ring, “wings”, an Iron Cross 1st class and something that was very important was found, the Identification disk. All the remains of the pilot were put into a coffin and placed in the mortuary of the town for keeping. From the information that was found on the identity disk the WAST (German war archives) determined that the remains were Oberfeldwebel Heinrich Peterburs (born 18th of March 1916). On the 22nd of November 2003 Heinz was buried, with military honours, at the War Memorial at Hoetzelio On 7 April 1945, the Luftwaffe’s suicide unit Sonderkommando Elbe despatched 183 Me-109s and Fw-190s against the American heavy bombers. JG 7’s Me 262s were tasked to escort the suicide pilots, but were unable to protect them against the swarms of Mustang and Thunderbolt fighters which attacked from all directions.
More than 800 US fighters were in action. In one of the last major air battle between the Luftwaffe and the US Air Force 133 German piston-engine fighters were lost, with seventy-seven pilots getting killed. It was an absolute tragedy. This sacrifice resulted in the destruction of seventeen heavy bombers – seventeen out of twelve hundred!
I too flew missions in that area every day from the 30th of March to the 10th of April 1945 and it is conceivable that both “Heinz” and I were in the same airspace at the same time.
