again a new one!

Hi, seems that your forum is really famous.

I wanted to introduce myself. As I said in my first Thread I grew up in Germany (Stuttgart) until the age of twenty. because of my father (an American form Oakland) it was no problem to get a US Passport. Now I normally live in Los Angeles near Venice (where I always wanted to live -> a dream came true). It don't took me long to find a job and start a new life with the age of 22. At the moment I am back in Germany for visiting my parents and and probably make a longer vacation (planned to visit the eastcoast or asia maybe the middle east)
I am very interested in politics and I think it is good for that to now some essential stuff about military works. I have an uncle who lives in Seattle WA and he served in the army for about 9 years. By 1991 he took part in the gulf war as an active soldier.

so that's it. don't hesitate and ask me what you want to know

Heißen Sie willkommen, Ihr Englisch ist besser als mein Deutsch; ich bin um Deutsch aufgewachsen, als meine Mutter österreichisch ist; ich habe dieses übersetzte auf dem Netz gehabt. Anfeuerungen.

Does that squeak, fellows?
