    Glad to be here! Two of your members recommended this forum and I must say at first glance they were right.

    A bit about me: father of 3 husband of 1, a unabashed history nut, and proud descendant of WW2 warriors. One GF was US Army in Italy & elsewhere, the other GF (my avatar) was USMC in the Pacific who lost a brother in the 82nd Airborne in Italy.

    Again, glad to be here, looking forward to excellent discussion!

    Thanks for the kind welcomes!

    Indeed, both of my grandfathers and a great uncle (who was KIA) fought in the war. My avatar (the one you are speaking of?) is my paternal GF, US Marines, Pacific Theater.
