Seaweed 596 January 8, 2014 Share January 8, 2014 So yeah! I'm Seaweed! (Don't ask about the nickname, looooong story) I'm 22, and I'm active duty military, serving as an infantryman in a sniper section in the US Army. I've served for four years, one deployment to Taji, Iraq and a quick little training mission in South Africa. Finishing my last few months in the army, then I'm off to school to hopefully be a teacher! Uh, little about me: I have lots of tattoos, currently working on a full sleeve. I play several instruments, and post-core/heavy metal music are my lullabys at night. I joined the herd about six months ago after feverishly fighting against it. Started like a lot of us, "Oh I'll just watch one episode, just to see what the fuss is all about." Aaaaand now I'm here. My favorite pony is Rainbow Dash, with Fluttershy as an EXTREMELY close second. Who is also tied with Pinkie Pie. Picking favorites is hard, haha. Anyway, I really look forward to getting to know everyone here, and it's a pleasure to meet ya! If you have any questions for me, ask away! 4 MLPforums resident marksman.

valete 195 January 8, 2014 Share January 8, 2014 Heya Seaweed! That is a pretty cool nickname to have, actually! So you're part of the military! That's cool too! I always wonder what it's like to be out there doing military things. Anyways, I also want to note that there are a good bunch of other military bronies on here, some being former members as well! I also agree on your point on favorites. One does not simply like only one pony! :comeatus: I hope you enjoy your stay, and I also hope that you make a lot of friends here. See you around!

Seaweed 596 January 8, 2014 Author Share January 8, 2014 Well thanks, all! I was actually hoping there'd be other military bronies here. It's good to see I'm not a HUGE minority, haha. MLPforums resident marksman. Mathlete/Badass MC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShineBright 7 January 8, 2014 Share January 8, 2014 My hubby was the same way. LOL. He's an OIF veteran who sat down with me to watch just an episode or something and fall asleep, but noooooo. He wanted to see more and more and more. Years later, he's got an original character or four and constantly asks for me to draw them, or his favorite ponies! You are definitely not alone. There are several military bronies.Thanks for your service. Welcome to the forums! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
