I got your pm Ed. Brilliant idea man!

So Ed suggested we start a Social Group for this Veterans club/group. It would be a good way to see who is actually interested, and a bit more of an official way to start. I will work on this today and post my results when I'm done. Again, great idea Ed. Thanks for your interest and your 23 years of service!

I have just created a social group here on the site and sent invitations to those of you who showed interest and responded to this thread. IF you are still interested in this, feel free to accept the invitation.

After you accept the invitation or add yourself, feel free to post a visitor message and let us know who you are, what branch you were in, job you had, if you deployed...so forth. Additionally, feel free to add a picture of your car to the social groups photo album. You can do this by adding a picture from your profile photo album here on the site. Let me know if you have any questions.

Here is the link for the Social Group:

I'm a little further away, in Gainesville. I own a G8GT and a 98 Z28. I've had 7 f bodies over the years though from a 92 to a 2002. I could possibly make it to a meet or two though I am really busy with work/school full time. I am prior service Army 31B (95B) did 2 tours in Iraq. Currently an MA in the Naval Reserves. This sounds like a great idea as I miss the army quite a bit some days and it would be nice to meet like minded veterans. I can't make it the 4th cause I work, but I'll subscribe to the thread and see how it turns out.

Thanks for your interest buddy. I agree, there are days that I miss the "life." You are more than welcome to come out to a gathering whenever you have the time. We are still in our beginning stages, but maybe we will have something going on a bit closer to you in the future; who knows. But hell, If you find the time; look around for Veterans with F-Bodies in your area and start something there

I'm only about an hour and a half away plus my dad lives in Tampa. If you guys meet after the June 4th one I'll try and make it. There's literally nothing going on up here car wise except for the ricer idiots on Thursday nights and the track which is expensive.

Too bad you cant make it out, will you be there all weekend or just on Saturday? I ask because a couple others have stuff going on that date as well. May just need to move it back a day (Sunday).

The first meet is always the hardest to get organized, but we will figure it out fellas.

I would be down...but I don't have a fbody anymore, and I am transferring soon. I think it is a good idea though, and if it had been around a few years ago, maybe I would have kept my TA.lol.

Gotcha...your actually making the trip up north. That will be cool man, take some pics and share when you get back. I would love to join the Power Tour once I am done with school and have the time, money, and a dependable car lol.
