Introduction Thread

Post by RetroSicotte »

Post here with your introductions as you join the forum. Who you are, what your interest is, where you're from if you feel like it and what areas you might be particularly interested in. It'll help people direct you or to find what kind of discussion you're after.

Try not to let this thread become too bogged down in discussion to welcome someone, but feel more than free to welcome those joining if you see a post go up in here!

Hi guys, a froggy escaped from Mp.net. :D
Well half froggy, as i have macedonian origins so i am also a bit interested into Balkan conflicts and militaries.
I may not post often (you all know certainly much more than me about UK defense procurements and military) but i'll read you all with pleasure and may act as a tiny sand grain in discussion when needed.
See you all soon

Well, I've set the thread up but cannot identify how to set up a poll?

Any advice, s'il vous plait?
Do you not have a "New Poll" button next to the one for "New Topic"?

I think that's a bigger problem than being a Liverpool fan mate.

Hello Ladies and Gents,

I was a longtime lurker on MP.net. A UK national, I have been fascinated with all things defence since I was old enough to mount a raid on the garden shed with nothing but a few mates and some cap guns. I have a background in defence and security policy but nothing makes me happier than a bit of warship construction porn!

Hi everyone!

Im British but always felt that i am a Belgian :lol:

I am interested in various countries Armed Forces, particularly Central/South America/Indochina and of course Belgium!. However i find it important for everyone on this website to keep note of Commonwealth Countries as this is a British Defence forum.
