    I've been a student of WWII since growing up in the 1950's. I'm an Army vet, 1967-1970, and served with the 5th Infantry Division, stateside and Vietnam.
    I am constantly reading one or another books on the subject, and enjoy taking my modest collection of military firearms to the range (as funds allow, not very often:()
    I'm very glad to have found this forum.
