    Hello from Honolulu, Hawaii.

    Hello everyone. I'm Justin. I'm in the Navy (US, that is) and look forward to contributing to the articles I have already been reading for quite some time. I'm working on a degree in International Relations, and have been a History buff since my pre-teen years.

    Presently, I am reading a book called Carnage and Culture by Victor Hansson which looks at how the Western culture has impacted wars in the past. I highly recommend it thus far.

    Some things I enjoy are: traveling (work has brought/is bringing me throughout Asia these days), hiking, reading, learning new languages, history, photography, and trying to finish my degree.

    Again, I look forward to being part of this site. Have a great day/night.

    Cheers,
    Justin

    @ Dreadnought: I am a surface dweller...no subs for me. Sorry about the late response, but I've been enjoying some time off in Australia. Thanks for the welcomes.
