Newest Member!!

Hey everyone!

I just wanted to let you know that I have been following for awhile and decided to join in!!
I currently live in Chicago and have been on about 3 millitary forums for the past 2 years.
The funniest forum so far is the Iran Defence forum. Boy what they make up in there!!!
I got into the millitary forums because of my brother and 2 cousins that are over in Iraq, and I was able to express my opinions and ask questions.

Thanks!

Welcome Bella.

I know of Mohamed Ahmed Ben Bella (Muhammad Ahmad Bin Balla)(born December 25, 1916, Maghnia, Algeria) who was the first President of Algeria, and seen by many as the Father of the Nation

Thanks everyone, I currently own a appraisal company based out of Chicago and love to talk about current events and millitary.
I don't know tankie, it's pretty windy here today!
For more information, I got into this because my brother has served several tours in Iraq, and Afganistan, "sorry if I miss spelled it".
He's been in the Air Force for 8 years, and will be ending his career in 1 month.

thanks
