ATTENTION! Hello soldiers, I'm beginning this thread, more in part because of the great submissions that have been submitted to the #ww1-history Discord channel on our official Discord Server (discord.gg/playbtw if you're not there yet, why not?) as it's getting populated with fantastic pieces of artwork from the time of the war or amazing real life footage showing the living conditions while deployed. But why should Discord have all the fun? I assume many of you are interested in Beyond The Wire because of the setting of WW1. What we'd like to know in this thread though is what drew you to exploring more of the history of World War 1 as a period of history that you enjoy. Whether it be a particular battle that sparked your imagination or a certain piece of weaponry that compelled you to research more about the era, share your story. If you are new to the forums, this might serve as a great way to introduce yourselves and get to meet some of the folks you'll eventually be meeting on the battlefield.
