New guy here
« on: June 21, 2010, 07:06:51 AM »
So, I found this board through thisainthell.us yesterday and somehow missed this forum. 

Anyway, I'm an Infantry NCO temporarily locked away in Recruiting Command.  I served with the Rakkasans during the invasion of Iraq and The Old Guard for over four years.  My gun safe is overloaded, I have a family and dog, drive a truck, and drink beer of all types, from Busch Light to Sierra Nevada Torpedo and Chimay.  I consider myself strongly conservative but outside of TAH and a few other blogs I don't stay too up to date on current politics. 

I'll be posting from time to time, and checking in a few times a week.

I would, but I drank the rest of mine last week.  Great news, though, I found a store that sells them for twenty cents cheaper per six pack than regular Sierra Nevada!

Thanks for the welcomes.

Welcome Rakkasan!  I went to the Sinai with the 4/187 a lifetime ago myself.  Sounds like time to buy a second gun safe, 'cause it's never time to stop buying guns!
