"They went their way, true to their oath, In the grey, the simple soldier\'s kit. They were exactly like you and I, they secretly asked: why and for what? They knew fear and did not succumb. They fought and suffered, true to their duty. They fell and died - flying like sand. The burning waves, the icy border, the gloomy forest, the steppe so wide. These cover them - for all eternity. You who are born after, revile them not, they knew one word, they called it duty. And should you some time seek it, you will find no more... The grey - but the great, the glorious army."
In August of 2004, Zappi, Homba, Bambam887, RedScorpion and MOOXE all pitched
in to create this Close Combat site. I would to thank all the people who have visited
and found this site to thier liking. I hope you had time to check out some
of the great Close Combat mods and our forums. I'd also like to thank
all the members of our volunteer staff that have helped over
the years, and all our users that contributed to this site!
