Greetings from Jeff Garrison
« on: 2012-01-17, 21:00:05 »
Thanks admins for activating my forum account!

Hello folks, my name is Jeffrey Boyd Garrison. Denizons of the internwebz often call me JB (or sometimes "Mr. Gawwison") and my friends usually call me Jeff.

I am primarily interested in heraldry, napoleonic era and medieval history. I look forward to learning more about Modern Chivalry.  :)

Welcome, its an interesting era and I think you will find that many of the ideas of chivalry have influenced law and many other civic groups through the ages. Unfortunately I belive much of the original significance has been lost to ceremony, but it had much deeper meaning and our brothers here hold those beliefs as true today. Welcome.
