This website is a continual work in progress. It began in 1996 because I wanted a website devoted to my grandfather's division, the 70th Infantry Division, on the web. At the time there was nothing available.

While trying to find out what Kelly Dixon, C/270, did during World War II with the division, I found the lack of information on the web about the division disappointing. So I vowed from the start to build a site where others wouldn't have that problem.

With the permission of the 70th Infantry Division Association, I started the site in 1996 and haven't let up since. What you see now is the result of that work. It would not have been possible without the co-operation of the Trailblazers themselves.

My name is Steven Kelly Dixon. People usually call me Steve. I am 51 years old and married. I am a veteran of the Marine Corps, having served from June 1975 to June 1979. I was honorably discharged with the rank of Sergeant, having earned two meritorious promotions, a meritorious mast and the Good Conduct Medal. I worked as an aviation electrician on F-4J Phantom II's. Go to VMFA-251 to find out more!

Once I left the Marines, I went to college and three years later I had a degree in Philosophy. While attending college I had a part time job with the local TV station and have been involved in TV or media production ever since. Currently I am employed with Newscorp at FOX 5 in Atlanta serving as a web producer.

I have been married 19 years. My wife, Lisa, works for Progressive Insurance. I have two daughters and one son; Sarah 16, Deanna 14, and Brian, 8. For more on the family you can go here.

My hobbies are computers (no kidding), reading science fiction and World War 2 history, and playing games...any kind will do.  The best that I have consistently played over the last few years are "Combat Mission: Beyond Overlord", "Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin" and "Combat Mission: Afrika Korps", all published by Battlefront.com. It doesn't get any better than these games!
