intro
After much reading I have finally mustered the courage to post an intro. My name is Lee and I am a Deputy Sheriff currently assigned to the Terrorism Division. I have 2 reasons for posting an intro. First, the obvious to introduce myself and second to thank you all for what you do. I am 32 years old and 3 weeks ago I found out for the first time that my father was part of the SF community. Not Army SF but SAS.... How did I find out? Helping my mother pack her stuff to move. I happened to come across a picture of my dad in uniform holding me as an infant. I always knew he served in England but I he never talked about what he did or what his job was. He always told me his job was being a soldier. I showed my father the picture and after a long conversation finally found out he was SAS. I asked him why he never told me and he said, "I did it because it's what I loved. I never told you because I didn't want you to feel obligated to try SF here in America. SF is not for everybody and I barely made it." So, with that thank you all not just for your service but for what you have endured to get to where you are. I don't know if I'm posting in the right place and I'm sure you all will let me know if don't. Regardless I want to say thank you!
