Ask them what their favorite faction in that game is, or if there are any mods they've done recently. Could always just be a big nerd for WW2 cause they're a teenager.

yeah, ww2 history is really interesting lol, it's more a yellow flag than a red flag

Yup. A guy I know was a big WW2 nerd. Also openly gay. Sometimes people just like historic stuff.
