Welcome to the forum:

Bernard (which I hope isn't your real name) It's worth mentioning that the "gestapo" do check up on the forum. I doubt if they're taking notes, but just remember that if you offer up anything that may impede your joining, it's your own fault.
That being said, don't forget to take 5 minutes to introduce yourselves.
As for Ganriel &
US_FFLGuy, It takes more to convince me than just ticking the box Actual or former FFL and in the case of US_FFLGuy the first three digits of your matricule.
I'll give you both until Thursday. I mean I can't do any better than that, can I? Since we've been able to take on newcomers again, We've had around ten who've ticked the box, let me give you one classic example:
Actually, after looking I can no longer find the exchange. You'll just have to take my word on this:
I get this request from a guy who claims to be an ancien legionnaire, I contact him by mail and ask for the usual proof, copy of certificate of medals, which regiments he's served in etc.
Actually I'm getting a bit head of myself, he puts down that he's a US marshal as occupation. Why not? 5 years in the FFL would be a good start, we've got an ex-legionnaire who is US cop.
So when nothing more is coming I contact him again. he then claims that it was his dad who was in the legion. I check out his IP address which is a server with nothing but bad comments about this bloke... claims to be FBI... current serving military in Syria.
I contact him again and tell him what I think of him.
