Just wanted to say hello to everyone here.
I sort of stumbled on to this web page and after some time, very reluctantly signed up. Though I have the ability to formally sign up with "Professional Soldiers", it took some time before actually doing so. I am not currently nor previously a member of the Armed Forces. ...and as such, felt initially that I really had no place being a member among those who I've read about here.
I did decide to sign up simply due to the unique membership of Professional Soldiers and the collective experience the membership here clearly has. Though my membership will largely be that of an observer, I certainly appreciate having a forum such as this to learn more about some of the men who I've come to hold in the highest regard.
I wont have much to offer, if anything here. As such, I wont be wasting space on this web page or anyones time with any sort of filler nonsense of any kind. I felt it to be more respectful to the membership if I stepped forward, formally announced myself here and then stepped back to quietly learn further about some of the most accomplished men America has ever produced.
Really what should resound the most loudly of anything I say in this intro is the most sincere "thank you" I can possibly convey to the Quiet Professionals who make up the membership here. Thank you for your service and thank you for allowing me to quietly learn more about the Special Forces. Though I am anything but among your ranks, that certainly doesn't change the fact that to me, you are very inspiring in the sacrifices you and your brothers have made....and very, VERY seldom does sacrifice, professionalism and accomplishment spike as highly as it does among your ranks. I am truly humbled from what I know of you.
It's an honor to be here.
I know this is your board. I will remember my place. I'll read the stickies, I'll follow the rules. Period. My greatest transgression may be a few questions, but I've got a lot of reading here to do before that happens.
Again, thank you for allowing me in to this forum. If the membership here feels that my presence is not what is desired, due to my lack of military service or for any other reason, I will happily step away and never return, though Admin could simply lock my account, that wouldn't be necessary....trust me.
Thanks again!
