hello
Good afternoon all
stumbled on the site and immediately registered given my lifelong interest in the Dark Continent and the history of South Africa. Ive got quite a few friends here in the States that are from SA, couple from Zambia and an older gentleman who now lives in Birmingham, Al who's a Rhodesion (left before the change).
My lifelong interest in firearms are tied into my full and parttime career fields. Im a Police Detective with the City of Fayetteville, Ga. USA. My additional duties with the Dept. are SWAT Team Leader and Adjunct Dept Firearms Instructor.
Im also an US Army Reservist with 23 years combined active and reserve. I started by military career with the 1st Ranger Bn, 75th Ranger Regt. In addition to my time in the Ranger Regt with US Special Operations, I also served in the US Army Reserve's Small Arms Readiness Group as an Firearms Instructor Detachment NCOIC.
As a side note, I have a family member from SA. I sleep well at night knowing he will immediately let me know when its time to grab a gun and flashlight.
Look forward to both learning and contributing,
Marvin
