New guy here from Pa.

[jagdpanther6]

Hi, I'm Mike but go by Jagdpanther6.
I'm 65, retired from the U.S. ARMY and Civilian life. I've been building models on and off since 1970. I like 1/35 Armor and 1/32 WWII aircraft. I hope to make some new friends here. And learn a few things.

Welcome to MSC

[406 Silverado]

Well hello Mike!! Glad to have you here buddy. Retired from the Army eh? What was your MOS?

I spent a total of 14 years in the Army as a 67N for my first 8 years in active Army and then for another 6 in the National Guard as a 63B so I've been around the block a time or two.

Looking forward to having you here and seeing your work.

Thanks for the Welcome. I spent 11 years as an 11C and the next 7 and a half years as a 63T. Retiring in Jan.of 95 with 18 and a half years. I was offered early retirement and took it. I'm mighty glad to be here.

Hey Mike, welcome to MSC, we're glad you are here.

If you don't mind me asking, how did you find MSC?

[stikpusher]

Welcome to MSC Mike! Active Army and Guard for 24 years here  Sounds like you'll fit in quite well with your preferences.

[kyledehart5]

Hey Mike! Welcome! No doubt you'll make some friends here as it really is a great place. Dive on in. Can't wait to see your work.

Welcome to MSC Mike. Happy to have another armor modeler around.
For some time the car and fly guys seemed to get the upper hand... 

[TOWGunner]

Welcome to MSC Mike. I'm new here myself and they're awful friendly here! I'm a retired 11H, and do armor, so I look forward to seeing a build of yours.

[handiabled]

Welcome to MSC! It's great to have you onboard!

I found MSC from a fellow member on another model forum who felt the same way I did. That there is no room for Politics or personal attacks for ones beliefs. I see a few familiar faces over here from the other forum. And recognize some of the work also. I went by a different screen name. But I'm really glad to be here. Where Plastic and Glue are Number 1.

[TOWGunner]

There's a LOT of that going around other modeling forums lately, and I won't even go on Facebook modeling groups anymore. World and national politics are at a flashpoint no matter which way you lean. No place for them in modeling. This seems to be a safe place though!

[Steve Zuleski]

Awesome, another Mike, (that makes at least 400 by now, HA!) and an army guy, (which makes it about 700), and an amor nut, (so that makes that about 900), and a wingy dingy thingy builder ta boot. Shewww, not sure what that count is, but we'll get to that one later.

Glad you're here Mike, Ruck On, BBy, and have fun!

Cheers, Ski.

Welcome to the club Mike! My name is Mike also and i'm from PA. Can't wait to see some of your builds.

 Yup! You won't see any of that here Mike. There's a LOT of staff here to keep an eye on things so they don't get out of hand like you mentioned in your post. The way the staff sees it as well as all the members that are currently here participating......we're here to have fun in the hobby and support one another. Drama free bro.

Welcome to MSC Mike. I guarantee that you find everything you could wish for here. Especially meeting and making some great friends with remarkable skills. Make yourself at home, share some pics of your builds and ENJOY!!

G'day Mike, It's a great place here. I'm from Australia and I'm not a military guy. Hope you don't mind my asking but what does a 67n and 63b mean?

[dukemaddog]

Welcome Mike! Glad you made it.

G'day from me as well mate. I'm also from Aussie and I'll echo Deano's questions. You're going to love this site. I'm new too and I'm hooked, although there are a lot of folks who seem to like building shiny things with wheels.
