Hello you all. This is me.
My real name is Lars Laurent, and I live in Finland. I'm 33 years old, interested in multitude things and ended up here from the battlefront forums.

I'm married without kids, working in IT and try to spend my free time maintaining and upgrading our house lately.

As I'll be probably be attending the military forums mainly, I'll just tell briefly my related backround concerning that area. I'm corporal (alikersantti) in Finnish army reserve and I'm trained as a combat engineering squad leader. I have civilian demolition licence and have been shooting guns (mainly pistols) for almost all my life. And I still suck, but that's beside the point

I hope to engage in informative and enjoyable discussions with you all.

Thanks for the interest.

Count me in too. Though not in the military but an Engineer never the less.
