    Welcome on the forum. Don't worry about your English, many people on the forum are not native anglophones, so that's fine.

    Daniel,

    Welcome and write what you feel is necessary. If we can't understand it the first time, we'll just ask you to say it in another way. We're not going to complain about your English when we can't speak German.

    Welcome from another newbie :) It appears that you speak -- or write -- more English than I speak or write German... Not to worry, I'm sure that everyone here will welcome your input.

    It's true that we have many active members from the USA, but we are also proud to have contributors from Great Britain, France, Finland, the Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Spain...even in the past we have had people here from Croatia, China the Phillipines and Estonia.....

    It is interesting because by it's very nature, WWII arouses different opinions and emotions in different Countries.

    Allo Dan and welcome! I'm from England, my spoken German would make you laugh so you're not find me having trouble with your English. I look forward to reading your posts.

    Daniel it is a small world that is fact..........

    I am roughly 1/3rd Deutsch. My mother was Italien German, with at least 5 relatives serving for the Heer and Luftwaffe during the war. I can write German better than speak it, sadly I am too lazy

    Beste Grüße

    und viele Spaß on the forums
