I have been a member here for a while, but I have not posted anything, I have done a lot of looking around on the site and am pleased with the wealth of information found here.
I am not a Special Forces soldier, I did a tour in the Navy, traveled around a little bit, nothing really interesting happened, got to see an Iranian gunboat up close while in the gulf, that was the most excitement really I had. I am self employed now.
I have the utmost respect for those who wear the Green Beret, I find their work fascinating and 100% necessary in today’s world. Thank you to those here that wear the Green Beret, and also to all the soldiers here who have served and are continuing to serve.
I am an avid shooter and outdoorsman, I hike 15 miles twice a week with 50 pounds on my back and run 5-10 miles every other day

. I shoot regularly, my favorite weapons to shoot are my IMI 9mm and my AR-15.
Sometimes at the range I get funny looks from people while I practice shooting drills. Nobody there usually does pushups in between magazines or lies on their back while shooting.
I am a patriot, thoroughly. I love my country, I haven’t forgot my oath, so don’t think I am some kind of a paramilitary wacko because I practice shooting drills.
I have a nice house in a good neighborhood and I have a great family. I read constantly but I don’t really refer to myself as a librarian.
In 2000 I went to Northern Bosnia and tripped around taking photos. I met some great people and formed some friendships there. I tried to get into Serbia but I wasn’t allowed.
I joined the site to chat with other likeminded individuals.
