    Hello everyone so here's my little Intro :)

    Whats your name? Alicia

    Age: How old are you? 28 How long have you been interested in WWII? Gosh, this is a difficult one, on and off during my life, but it's become a bit of an obsession since the last 4 months.

    Origins: Where are you from? Originally from Florida, but raised in Texas and live in the UK now :)

    Specifics: What areas of WWII are you interested in? Well I re-started my infatuation with WW II due to Band Of Brothers and since then my research has developed into numerous subjects. My subject of the moment is the SS.

    What would you like to know more about? The more I learn about WW II the more I want to know really, it's fascinating. My biggest interest has become the Western front.

    Hobbies: What sort of Hobbies do you have? My family, my job (fashion) but lately reading and watching documentaries on WW II :D
    Wargaming? Video-games? - No ...Memorabilia? none as of yet.

    Visiting historic sites? Next year Normandy, Holland and maybe Germany, not sure on where yet, it's still to be properly organized.

    Other: What other time periods are you interested in? WW II only :)

    Miscellaneous: Anything else you'd like to share with us? Can't think of much to say at this very minute, but I would like to know all I can about WW II and if anyone is willing to share any stories or have any conversations or debates about this subject please feel free to contact me :) Other than that thank's for reading :D

    Welcome, Alicia! I too was raised in Texas, and then moved away. I miss it greatly.

    Hope you enjoy your time here and learn a lot!

    Welcome dear Alicia. :cool:
    But I cannot resist from asking an inevitable question when a new member appears so suddenly and guys are so awfully nice to her/him:

    Isn’t this (s)he, again? :rolleyes:

    Ok, sorry but what?! Not being rude but I don't think I need to tell you 'Tamino' anything about me but if you are really interested than feel free to google me or research me https://twitter.com/Fasali?p=i. Or just google fasali. There you will be able to find who I am. Yes, I'am a 28 year old woman who works as a fashion stylist and a fashion blogger, but that doesn't mean I don't have any other interests and to be honest I rather be interested in WWII than any silly reality tv thing.

    Sorry for the venting but it does get annoying that people can't see I've got a bit of a 'fascination' with WWII. I'm here to research and interact with those that know more than me about it. I'm not here to be questioned about 'who I am'.
