Hello!
Good morning/night/afternoon to everyone!
I'm an 18-y.o. student from Italy with a remarkable interest in history in general and world war 2 in particular: well, that's why I'm in front of my PC browsing this site at a half past midnight instead of going to bed like every good girl should do 
Basically I stumbled into WW2 at the age of 13, when I had the bright idea to write a novel about nazis: I started reading everything I've found about Wehrmacht, but still nowadays I feel like a terrible newbie - so, I'm here to improve my knowledge. Overall, I'm especially fond of the German side of the conflict, DAK and July Plot.
What more to say? Zu Befehl

Re: Hello!
Welcome Vicky. We don't have too many 18 yo ladies lurking about but that certainly doesn't mean we can't learn a bit from each other. Jump on in and don't let any of the old grousers here get your goat.

Re: Hello!
Welcome to the Forum, Vicky. As one of the few females on the Forum, I always appreciate the company; however, 18 was quite a long time ago for me! I hope you enjoy the Forum.
