Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen You can call me Sam. I hail originally from Macon Georgia, and now make my home with my Wife in Hopewell VA I retired from the Navy 5 years ago, and the Mrs got me a job as a Conservation Officer She herself is former Navy and at present owns her own Business. I am also a licensed Collector, and concentrate on British and American weapons. At My wife's request I do not put up pictures of them on the internet. My wife and I are very private people. I hope you'll all understand. |

Got a late, but long lunch, and decided to stop home.Attending some work shops on updated regulations. Have to be back at 1400.ET2ss I spent over half of my career in Naval Security, and the remaining years as Senior Cadre in Great Lakes NTC. I hit 20 and decided that I'd had enough. Herr Messer I'm sorry but this is a matter of personal preference I ask you to respect my wishes |

Hello Sam. A big welcome from the other side of the pond. I do post pictures of some of the weapons in my collection, but I don't post any pictures of me on any of the forums that I'm a member of. Too bad about the pictures, but I understand. I hope you are going to like this place as much as I do. Lots of good people in here. Met vriendelijke groet, Martin |

Thank you Sam. I guess for a small country we do OK. Maybe a bit more than that. I understand your opinion about our Navy. Just check our history and you’ll find out our Navy started way back. I also believe that we have very capable people working in our Armed Forces. IMHO we have the capability to adapt very quickly. I guess that makes us big…….not number wise. Just looking at the numbers we would fit in your back pocket.  Met vriendelijke groet, Martin |
