When I was a kid, I developed a passion for military history. I founded an online club for other military history enthusiasts and spent the early days of the internet constantly seeking out new resources and reading material. To this day, I really enjoy digging into historical timelines and trying to relate the events of the past to the present day. It’s a hobby of mine, and I enjoy sharing it with others. My favorite subjects are Second World War aviation, specifically the U.S. Army Air Forces.
This website idea came about while I was working on another project. I wanted to use a more modern table interface to interact with the data from the Combat Chronology. As it turns out, I have professional experience organizing large volumes of data and helping users find what they’re looking for, so I started this adventure by copying this PDF to a text document. Then, I used Notepad++ to format everything correctly and came up with some ideas you’ll see me explore here.
I plan on adding quite a bit of content to this website, some of which I’m still brainstorming, so please come back again soon. The more history floating through our media newsfeeds, the more likely it will inspire others to practice studying and learning from history and be willing to see the bigger picture in all situations.
