Been a reader, now a member...
Gentlemen,
I have been viewing your fine forum with my close friend and member of your forum Dan (Brother Rat) for some months now, and he finally convinced me to register myself. I'm not a shy person, but I suppose I have felt humbled by the wisdom and experience of the forum members, so I was content to quielty listen, and now that I am a member, I feel it would be rude not to intrudice myself, so here goes...
My name is Keith Jones. I am 18 years old, reside in Houston Texas, and am a cadet at the Virginia Military Institute. I am currently on a commissioning path with the Army ROTC. I would like to make a career out of the Army, as it has been the most perminant of all my youthful ambitions. I am currently high in competition with my classmates for a slot at Jump School this summer, but it's still competition nonetheless, so that is my most immediate goal. Ultimately, I would like to serve in a special operations capacity.
From time to time, I may feel compelled to ask questions to further my understanding of Special Forces and related topics. I might even reply to a topic that I feel confident in, but for the most part, I'm just here to learn everything I can. I thank you for being welcoming to new members and providing a forum to promote the sharing of your expertise.
Sincerely,
Keith Jones
