Hola!

It seems that I posted my introduction salute in a thread from someone that in the meantime got banned....
I registered today in WAB. I wish I knew about it earlier.
Congratulations!

Thank you Parihaka. I have read a few threads in the board over that last months. A few days ago I read the Considering a war with Iran thread, and I have to say that I was very, very impressed.

Hello Snc128, yes I’m Spanish, you can learn more about myself in the Profile. That is, if I did it properly.

It was some time ago, I think while tracking down some news items about the possible sale of F-22 Raptors to Israel that I found the WAB. Some of the military threads are so dense with technical stuff that I was quite absorbed. In my first visits, I ended up reading tons of documentation about some obscure SAM systems (obscure for me, anyway). So it actually took me a few visits to realize about the International Strategic Affairs discussions which I find even more interesting.
I doubt I will have much to contribute in the Military Forums, except perhaps to share what I know about aspects of the Spanish Civil War or similar subjectcs.

But I think I would like to participate now and then when I do have something of interest to say - as I said more likely to happen in International Strategic Affairs or General Forums discussions. But mainly, I have plenty of reading ahead of me.
