My name is Brian Simmons, I live in the twin cities of Minnesota. I am a major WWII Pacfic navy war enthusiast. I come from a navy family, my father Korean, grand father WWI, uncle WWII, Korean, Vietuam. I wanted to join but vision issues prevented me from following in my families foot steps. Hence the name Blindluck. I had the privilege of going to Pearl Harbor in 2016 and meet one of the remaining survivors of the attack. That experince along with my family's navy back ground I decided I needed to honor them. When I got back I was doing research on the Arizona and ran accross a guy on YouTube doing a 12 video build of her. I found my way to honor my family. I am building the ships that they served on and creating a display of them with the model. in all I am hoping to build 15 ships. They weren't on all of them but I have a bucket list that I want to build. I am 53 I need to get moving LOL
I hope to get to know as many of you as I can and share in the experience and knowlege that you all possess.
