Country: | Excuse my poor etiquette Jumped into posting before making introductions...
I've been reading the forum for years without being a contributer - probably a good thing that I waited a long time before making comments as I before I started studying the threads here I considered myself to be somewhat of an expert. Did not take long for me to learn that I am a mere novice - but I am enjoying the learning process greatly.
One thing I especially enjoy about the forum is its show-and-tell nature = when one makes a claim it must be backed up by credible reference. This put-up or shut-up policy helps to eliminate alot of bias.
Regarding me, well, when I'm not working ( = surfing military history topics) I am usually either fishing (here I am perhaps a true experten) or trying to keep up with 9 year-old son who plays virtually every sport known to humankind.
That's about it - thanx for having me, Pflueger (aka Elliott) |
