I'm new to the site, but have been lurking here for the last week.
I found Professional Soldiers from a link on another site. I am really impressed with the upfront and businesslike approach all of the members here have. It is a credit to all of you who maintain this site and contribute. Thank you.
I was an active Army and NDARNG soldier for eight years. I have never served in a combat zone. The most dangerous thing I ever encountered in my service was soju and it beat me down. In all seriousness, I would like to thank all of those here who have, or still are risking their lives to serve our great country.
I have been shooting and hunting since I was a little kid on a farm in rural ND. I competed with the NDARNG on my unit's combat rifle/pistol team, with no great success I might add. I was getting better with more trigger time and experience. I was looking forward to getting my first competition points at regionals at Camp Guernsey in Sep. 2001.......
My main activity in Professional Soldiers will be lurking. From what I've seen here so far, my limited experiences and knowledge will not provide any greater insight into the topics discussed. I will apply the skills I did learn from my sociology classes in college. I will observe, study, and glean as much information as I can from the forums.
Thanks again to all of the Professional Soldiers contributors,
Gary
