I finally took a look at your website. You guys are like Stacy's Mom...You got it going on!

1. The hand to hand combat drills look AWESOME!
2. The Weapon Training sessions in the backyard appear to be very informative.
3. Cool hair-do on the one guy! Suggestion, everyone in your club should adopt that hairstyle. Slippy like!

I see that you boys are from Van Nuys, wasn't the high school filmed in a bunch of movies? Rock and Roll High School and Fast Times at Ridgemont High come to mind? Anyway just wanted to chime in and wish you boys all the best.
They've got a website?
I must have missed that!!
I'll have to go back and look for it.

I looked at those pics. Bout what I expected. I'm curious. Did the military change what a proper salute was? Cause that isn't the way I learned to do it. You would think a guy that was in the Marines would teach the others how to snap off a proper salute.

I thought they were doing an eye test or some sort of sobriety test.

actually I'm glad you noticed that, we had a discussion about a year ago on how to address proper conduct and formal courtesy. Though two of us come from the military we felt it would be inappropriate to use that form of salute along with a few other changes. as I've stated numerous times not everyone of us comes from a military background and thus this is a civilian organization at its core. Though some have served, this organization is not the military, yet we still strive for good order and appropriate conduct and look to the military in providing that framework without trying to pose is that so wrong?

As I've said before if you have questions, simply ask as i am nothing if transparent. chances are that none of use shall ever meet and all you really know is that i live in the peoples republic of California and that i am trying to build something greater then my self. daring my time in there is one founding principle that i fell in love with and that was the sense of brotherhood that comes from being apart of something bigger, that comes from being apart of a unit that will smoke and joke one moment then whoop it on in another... i still have drinks with my boys every couple of weeks and give reloading advice when i can. after leaving i asked myself could such a principle be taken to a civilian organization and with that this small unit was formed and slowly we are growing to meet our objectives and our clearly defined beliefs. mock us however which way you will, i bear you no ill will for it, as those are your beliefs and opinions. I wont even ask you to understand why we have chosen this path and that money is tight all around, thus we still bare the mark of being a small unit as i am sure none of you could think past your clearly define prejudice's.

i would say that in this short time on your forum I've learned that outside the forums prepper don't believe in cohesion as time and time again i hear the statement that "outside of this board no one knows i prep" and thus it could be said that it is a selfish ideology of only what is best for myself and my family, however i would be a moron if i only allowed a few posted from a few people to paint the entire picture for me as i suffer no such prejudice. everyone is allowed to go about their own lives as they see fit as we only get the one chance and when it is your time to go, you have little to no say in the matter. my point simply is that i am trying to build something bigger then myself with the intent on helping my community and creating something with similar bonds to that which i felt daring my time in.

anyways once again good days and good tidings to you all
