My former Weapons Sergeant.
He works at Robin Sage now as the "Law Enforcement Liaison", if you can believe that. 
Welcome Wodan, and all others.

When to the Warrant Course in 90/91 then moved over to ODA 363 2/3rd SFG. That's the high points. I am now a blacksmith and knifemaker in Knoxville, TN. "Team Sergeant" convinced me to join so you could pick on me because of my very long hair and beard. Will get a picture up soon. So, have at it!

Welcome aboard here and thank you for your service.
Report into the knife area here as you see fit, would love to see a pic of your forge setup.

introduction
Hello, my name is R.T., I am 35 yrs. old, a civilian applicant to ocs. have a bachelors from San Diego State University. Scored 285 on the army fitness test. Currently waiting to be interviewed by an ocs board. Hoping one day to try out for SF, but one step at a time. I am most likely color blind, but have been known to pass red/green discriminant tests before. Thank you for the use of this board.

Greatings from the Northland
Just stopping by to check out the site. I worked as an 05BS (ODA525) in 5th in the early eighties and then later in the early 90's I worked as an 18E (ODA 061) in 10th. I've spent a short time in 19th and 20th but nothing significant. I moved around too much as an A&P mechanic to get serious with one guard unit but I did retire with the guard. Now I set up photovoltaic systems for the National Park Service.

Gentlemen:
Thank you for your military service and the opportunity to be a guest here.
I'm 46, no military experience, and work as a mechanical engineer for a U.S. government contractor. Nothing HSLD, I just help make circuit boards for spacecraft and fill out a lot of paperwork.
I came to this site researching links from other boards about concealed carry and body armor. I am very impressed with the great depth of experience and wisdom on this board. Now back to lurking and reading.

Currently a college student studying Economics and Arabic also a Prior Service HM8404.
I've been lurking for many years here and mainly joined to use the search function and to also ask questions about the NGSF route. Especially interested in the few guys I've seen here who were prior Navy and then made the switch to this community.
Going back to lurker mode for a while so I'll save the Q's for later. Thanks for the resource.

May I introduce myself?
Gentlemen, first and foremost my fullest respect goes to all of the "Quiet Professionals" on this forum. I am in the USAF and hope to someday be accepted into your ranks as a Special Forces member. If destiny should see it fit to put me into your hands to mold and teach me, then I will forever be ready to listen to whatever it is you have to say. I look forward to reading further into each and every thread, and I will try with earnest to absorb all of the available knowledge here.
Thank you, Louis
