I'd like to initiate a request for a new forum to be generated: War Stories.
I believe there are many members here that are veterans of the military. Some here haven't had the chance to serve. I have had this idea in my head to find a way to help fill the gap between the hav's and have not's. Not by any means, a condescending nature.
On the contrary, a forum to bring better understanding of the experiences in the military would be beneficial. There's stories that I've been told by my father, grandfather, and friends alike that are quite funny, heartbreaking, and very informative. I've always been interested in hearing from the ones that were there, not a journalist/writer that has embellishment tendencies.
It can obviously be firearms related only. It may severely limit the number of stories to tell, but can understand if this must be the case. My request is to expand it to anything military related. I'd even venture to say that it would be nice if the subjects/threads were discussions about history in general as long as it stays on-topic of war/military.
What say you?
