Allow me to introduce myself...
The username is Kobalt04, but you can call me K04. I'm here to learn as much as I can about the Second World War, especially about the German-Soviet theater of the war (hence my avatar is a Yak-3 Soviet fighter). So I'll be reading a lot here and probably asking the odd question. Not much else to say. Cheers.

Re: Allow me to introduce myself...
Welcome KO4. I take it then that you're interested in Soviet airpower issues over the Eastern Front?

Re: Allow me to introduce myself...
Thank you, everyone, for the welcoming messages. And in answer to the question of Erich, I chose a Yak-3 for my avatar as it was simply the first piece of Soviet war inventory that popped into my head when I was setting up this membership. No other reason. And in answer to applevalleyjoe's question, you take it correctly that I am particularly interested in, though not limited by, the development of Soviet air power on the Eastern Front during the Second World War. There is a lot to learn. Again, many thanks for your messages of welcome, K04

Re: Allow me to introduce myself...
D.G. Mitichell and Skipper thanks for the messages and the tips, gentlemen. I'd be very interested in finding out information on the Normandie-Niemen squadron. It is good that there is such a good search facility on this board with access to much information about Soviet air power during WWII from like-minded people. I've used it once thus far; I can see it is going to get a lot of use from me from now and into the future. I can only repeat that there is a lot to learn. Again, thanks gentlemen, K04
