    Hello to all!

    I've been interested in WW2 since I was old enough to read.

    If i had to pinpoint main interests that I have in the war I guess I would have to say the naval aspects, particularly the American and German submarine campaigns (my grandfather was a crewman on the USS Silversides)
    USS Silversides (SS-236) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    That said though, there isnt a single aspect of the war that doesn't fascinate me.

    Hi Doxie -- Welcome! I hope you enjoy your time in these forums. They are both interesting and entertaining.

    If you are interested in sub warfare from WWII, you should also check out Sharkhunters, an organization that tracks the history of U-Boat campaigns during WWII. You can see their website at:

    Sharkhunters - German U-Boat History - Official Publication

    Cheers!
