Welcome Scott!  Glad to have you.  I'm a relative newcomer myself and also an old soldier, although I probaly left the Army before you went in. I was an Infantryman for 11 years.  I'll spare you the treadhead jokes  ;D

Nice to meet you, Scott!

I am perusing your website at the moment - looks like you've got lots of interesting stuff there! I like your late-14th century kit, too - it's got what I would describe as clean lines and a businesslike look.
"Sword fighting requires heart; if you frighten easily, then you are not to learn to sword fight. The whole art would be lost, because the roar of the impact and the rough strokes make a cowardly heart fearful."
-Master Hans Talhoffer

Welcome Scott,
Nice introduction. We share many passions.
Great looking harness by the way. There is a growing number of us on here who would agree that the mid to late 14th C is definitely the best  ;) ;D
