    Hi folks. I'm a former USAF officer and amateur historian (among other things), with a particular interest in all things WW2, in which my father fought for 3 years - behind Nazi lines in occupied Europe.

    I always had a fascination with the Pacific War, and several years ago I decided to do something with it.

    In 2008 I created the Internet's Battleship Yamato and Musashi Photo Archive, which I have updated many times since.

    Every single archive photo of Yamato/Musashi that I know of is up on my site, along with historical analysis and other details.

    Part of the reason I joined here is to share this resource with the membership.

    Here is the link:

    http://www.battleshipyamato.com

    Sincerely,

    Vlad
