Great to see you here Jim. I've been reading the old posts all evening and it looks like there is some really good info here, even for us non SF types.

No probrem.
Yeah, one thing I've seen while here is that the program is changing all the time. SFPC (aka SOPC II) will square you away for what you need to know about patrolling.

Thanks Doc.
Hi all.
My name is Gary and all my friends seem to be coming over here…. I’m ex Army and have been over at Lightfighter for years. In civilian life I’m an R&D supervisor for a quasi-evil multi national corporation.

Welcome all...
So with Casket here now, does this mean that Harsey and I have to watch what we say about the OSU Beavers???

Roger that & thank you Sir.
Funny thing about a college town, no matter how old I get, the girls always seem to stay the same age....
This looks like a very well done site.

Welcome everyone glad to see the influx of quality members for the LF community.
