Welcome friend, I am also a veteran, medically discharged in 1995 as it happens and you are in good company to be sure. I look forward to reading your posts and threads and I do not think you should feel nervous about posting your first threads; this place is friendlier than it might look and we are all here for very similar reasons.

Welcome AdAbsurdum!

I like your nick.


Enjoy your stay & see you around.

Weclome to ATS, Im happy to have you here with us,

Welcome. Thank you for the service. I can only guess as to view of life right now. I agree about the country though. So enjoy, there are a lot of bright people on here, just make up your own mind about things.

Foremost, Thank You for your service!!!

Welcome to ATS, your first 20 will fly by, I had mine done within an hour I think, just hang out on the recent posts page, and randomly refresh, like a thread smorgasbord.

Look forward to seeing you in the threads.

WOW

That's some welcome wagon. I don't normally get thanked for my service, I am a little taken aback. Thank you.

It is good to know there are other vets here. That does make me feel a little better knowing you guys post here and aren't being rounded up or anything, hehe.

My view on life now? Pretty disillusioned. I worked for NORAD and AFSPC for the first half of my short career, and from what that led me to I know live with an 80% disability rating and PTSD.

Thanks for rolling out the welcome mat!

Welcome, I also look forward to your posts and threads, thank you for your service to our Country which I believe is still the greatest on earth.

Cant wait to read your thread. Hopefully you get your 20 posts quick.

Welcome To ATS!

Well, at least I'll have one reader.

Please excuse my blatant post stacking.

Thank you deeply, for your service and sacrifice, AdAbsurdum. Welcome to the fray! This site is wonderful in its eclectic strata of people. It's wonderful for other reasons, which I'm sure you've seen.

You have a thick skin, I imagine. I have to work at not taking smears against the military personally. It's a process

I'd like to read your story when you are ready to share it with us.

U2U me if you have any procedural questions about the site, and I'll point you toward the same people that helped me out.

cheers!

Hehe, trying out the buttons now.

Thank you for the welcome. I have a thick skin, yes. You need when you are as irritating as I am.

Welcome to ATS from another vet (Gulf War I era).

Don't worry about The Powers That Be (TPTB) monitoring you, you'll get used to it. That Flowers By Irene truck that just parked in front of your house really does deliver flowers.

I looked them up, see they're a real company:

Flowers By Irene
932 Pennsylvania Ave SE
Washington, DC 20003 Map
(202) 324-1846

Yellowpages.com

Theres a fair few vets around here actually.

And theres nothing wrong with joining a forum that seeks the truth, however exciting, painful or boring it may be.

The world is cloaked in illusion, greed and disinfo in ways that have never even been possible before so we need avenues such as these to try to catch out unusual things in the news, or anything else that takes our fancy.

It's no different than a curiosity in any other subject matter just that the subject matters covered here can be slightly taboo. Why is that and who wants it that way?

The more 'regular curious' folk that join, the better.

Right on, brother. It looks I'll be finding a place here after all!

I would argue that because of the tools available to the people today, their hold is tenuous, at best.

Thank you for the welcome!
