Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

OK hear me out, what if the reason I like WW2 history is because there's a lot of kicking nazi ass

Or to write lore accurate day in the life of a 40k human soldier

The WW1 trenches are also very rich with inspiration, and the Napoleonic era Sharpe books have influenced quite a few Black Library books if you want more to read

Thanks for reminding me that I need to finish the Sharpe miniseries.

Ah yes, Sharpe also exists as a movie serie with Sean Bean! That slipped my mind so thanks for the reminder :)

Summary of WW2: "Nazi punks fuck off".

I like reading about all the spy shit and codebreaking that went on. WWII is really interesting if you're into the history of computer science and encryption.
