I doubt that a social network for WWII buffs is going to take off. It's not the right type of site for that. If you started a forum or a wiki and then packaged a social network with it for a sense of community, it might work. I've never pushed mine heavily through the forum, but it doesn't have that many users. I'd start a wiki or forum and build in social features for the community to use and start from there if I wanted to try to build a site like that.
I don't think a generic social network without some type of focus is going to take off unless you get extremely lucky, and even then it's not going to be sustainable. A non commercial one man operation isn't going to be able fund or even moderate very much. People join social networks where their friends are or where other people they want to be with are.
