Hardball -
Welcome and Welcome Home, too...
Many of us are grieving today, for our fallen brother Drifter, a Marine, a fine Marine... kinda fresh at the moment.
But, wanted you to feel welcome and noticed.
Might try posting on the Navy Forum and General Forum here too, about the USS Ranger and your service.
Also, suggest you consider posting an avatar beneath your handle up to the left there... go to "My Account", then to "Edit Options", then scroll down till you see Select New Avatar (these are all approximate words I am using
)... find one that suits you, click on it and submit the modification... then a little picture will show up whenever you post anything... it tells a lot about a person that others of your ilk will respond to, and the rest of us will know how to couch our words so as to not offend. Otherwise, can't never tell what might get said or not said, even if you DO post an avatar
Welcome, stick around awhile... grab a cup and speak your piece.
Zoomie out!
