Very informative site. I have been reading and learning for a while, figured I should get the introduction out of the way so if I have a question I can ask. I am trying to iron out some situations/family issues before I ship out.

I am currently a student in Phase III class 06-06. I have used the resources on this site since hearing about it from SGM J. during SFAS. I have found this site to be very informative and I look forward to participating in future discussions.

Hello my name is Ravi. I am an ROTC cadet that has been afforded an educational delay to attend law school and become a JAG officer. I found this site through a friend, and look forward to absorbing as much information as possible from the wealth of knowledge that is on this site.

Welcome aboard, Erik.
Great to see you at SHOT.

Hello,
I'm 16 and from the SE US. I found this site by means of another forum I frequent and have been reading it for quite a while. I have a little firearms training and will be expanding it very soon. I hope to be an 18D after highschool and I figure this is the best place to find direction in my search for information on the field. I apologise if I left any important information out, if I did I'm sure you will let me know. Thank you for opening your boards to people like myself.

Generically, the Army frowns on taking people they just spent several million dollars teaching how to fly and then spending several more million making them an SF officer.

Wow, I knew the government spent a lot on the training for individuals but is it actually that high? My guess was conservative, like a few hundred thousand or so.

Thank you for allowing me to join your group and learn from your site. I have been a member for a couple of months, reading different threads, and learning something new each time. I first came to this site to read the threads about preparedness and the avian flu pandemic. Since I have a health education degree these threads have been of considerable interest to me. I have been retired from the service for many years now; I have had overseas tours in Korea(several), Saudi Arabia(during the first war) and assignments across the US. I look forward to continuing to learn from the members on this site.

Thanks for allowing me membership on this board.
I'm more interested in learning than gobbing off, so I'll remain on mute unless I feel that there is something in my limited lane.
I'm 31, and have the following military experience:
1993-1999 Canadian Army, (2 years with the BC Dragoons and 4 years with the BC Regiment, both reserve units)
2000-2006 US Marines as a reservist with the 4th Light Armored Reconnaisance Battalion as a rifleman and LAV Crewman. I'm currently on IRR status.
My civilian employment is with a gear manufacturing company which focuses on the Canadian military and law enforcement market.

Many thanks
I am throughly pleased to see this site up and running. It is well laid out and a wealth of knowledge. Thanks to those who are serving and those who have fallen....You are not forgotten.
I am active air force. Satellite, wideband communications ops and maintenance stationed @ Langley. Coming to the end of the air force and looking at crossing over to continue with something more challenging. Looking at getting on board later this year heading for 18E slot/ or WO. Thank you to all and will be catching up on the reading before any further posting. V/R
