Welcome! YOU MUST BECOME A REGISTERED MEMBER TO HAVE FULL ACCESS (posting & editing)! 

The forum has not only migrated to a new server, but has undergone a complete transformation. Previously we were using MyBB, but have switched to wpForo, a more modern forum platform. It's something I've been wanting to do for a long time and finally mustered the courage to take the plunge. I thought, what a great way to begin 2026.

Please note: If you are already a current member, you will have to reset your password in order to login. I apologize for this inconvenience but the migration didn't allow this due to the differences between the old and new software. So, thanks for understanding. 

Along with revamping the main site, we're also getting a new name, one that I think is more representative of the content - ww2combatengineers.com. You will still be able to access  6thcorpscombatengineers.com, during the upgrade. However, once the renovation is complete, the old site will go by the wayside. But don't worry. Nothing will be lost. It's just receiving a much needed major facelift! We're just keeping up with technology. 

Feel free to ask questions along the way. Thanks for all patience while I make all the changes. 

Happy New Year, Marion
