Hello from Edward ReBrook
« on: 2015-10-17, 03:47:16 »
Gentlemen and Ladies (are there ladies?), please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Edward ReBrook and I am very happy to be a member of this forum. A little about me - I'm a Virginia Lawyer, West Point graduate, and combat wounded veteran. I love all things knighthood, heraldic, and of significance to military history. I am also a Knight Grand Officer of in the Sovereign Military Order of the Temple of Jerusalem. Currently I am looking to learn historical swordsmanship and to assemble an excellent knight kit. I would love to meet some of you, grab an ale (or mead), and learn more. Your thoughts and advice are most appreciated.

Very Respectfully,

Edward

Hail and well met Edward! Glad you joined the forum! :)
I know we can help you spend your money for assembling your kit and armaments! It's a passion with many of us to spend other people's money to vicariously obtain knightly goodies! ;)

Hail and well met. Have a look around at the threads here, and if something that interests you pops up, post in that thread. We aren't picky about "necro-posting" around here. :)

And as Sir Brian said, we'll happily help you spend your money!
