You're Top Poster: #135  |  New Member Hello to all. So this is where you all got to! Glad I found you, looks nice here doesn't it?  I'm a general military history buff, but WW2 in particular, land sea and air are all of interest. I'm a Brit, residing in the US of A. Last edited by South Staffs; 17-11-2007 at 03:23 AM.. |

Trying pretty hard here to speak about the "other" areas of ww2. Bit more of the Pacific, Burma, Asia and those not so discussed areas. We are not neglecting Europe of course because that is where it all happened initially. This was the intention of this new forum in the first place. We want to make it different from ******* and many other ww2 forums however any topic of course is open to posting. Clerks, Paymasters, Cooks, Mechanics, Truck Drivers, etc who kept the boys at the front at the front.
