Hi - I'm a British member, whose father served in WW2, and have spent most of my life visiting WW2 battlefields and interviewing veterans. Nice to have found another WW2 forum. Looking forward to a good look round.

No-one knows everything, that's for sure.

"I'm love ww2 soildiers" is certainly a somewhat bizarre statement! :pirate:

He served in the Royal Artillery in North Africa and Italy 1943-45, and then India 1945-47. He took part in operations at Anzio, and later was on the Gothic Line and in the Po Battle. Am pleased to say he is still alive; he'll be 90 next April.

Sir,You got that right! Sir what i meant that most members are interested in Tanks,ww2 aircraft,and battle ships and crusiers.Not many are interested in land soildiers during ww2.That's what love,I don't really love old guys that are in there 80's.

Yes, same one. The original instigator pulled out, so a group of us having been working on it for a launch sometime this winter.

Good on ye!
