1. Your Name Hello my screen name is DT1991.. It's just my first initials and my birth year. 2. Age I'm 22 and I've been interested in World War II since the 6th grade. I got my start from a history project on the Battle of Midway, I made a torpedo bomber out of Popsicle sticks. Never did find out what grade I made on it. 3. Origins I'm from the state of Georgia in the SW United States. 4. Specifics Mostly into the Pacific Theatre, particularly carrier operations in the first year of the war. I'm trying to branch out into the other theatres. Any thing on the carrier operations later in the war are appreciated. 5. Hobbies: I do a lot of reading, mostly related to my interest in early war carrier operations. Visited quite a few historic sites on vacation, I like playing various arcade flight games, things like that. 6. Other Have an interest in more modern fighter operations, especially Vietnam era. 7. Miscellaneous Nothing much. I'm currently a senior in college with a major in History.
