Hi all, I don't know how this will be recieved but I have had fun with this type of project before in other forums, plus it gives budding and experienced writers a chance to write for fun. I propose starting a WWII Forum story, kind of inspired by the what if section thread "Where would you serve in WWII". So...it's 1939, the stage is set for one of the largest conflicts the globe has seen...where will you be? Add your plotline involving your character, weaving it into the story, by all means jump into a scenario already written by some one else, or create your own (who knows one pilot character may be picked up by that patrolling Destroyer captain)

So it begins....

Fog rolled across the college aerodrome, blanketing the small squadron of tiger moths, leaving only blurry shapes in the white. Warrant Officer James Blackwood shifted uncomfortably, leaning against the window frame staring into the white mist. Behind him one of his room mates turned off the radio.
"So it's real then...we're going to war"

James turned, rubbing his jawline,

"Certainly looks that way" James' Australian accent sounded strange amongst his friends British cultured tones. He stretched briefly before sitting, looking at the other two young men.

(I've left it open for anyone who wants to write into this scenario as the other two guys)
