Tell us about your history in TAW.
"Well then i have to start with a deployment i had in 2001 with TANK. He introduced Delta Force Land Warrior that we played 2 vs 2. After my Deployement i had to wait for a few months till internet was available on the barracks and then i joined the DF division in December 2002. From that day on i stayed in DF till the division closed down in 2007. I had at that time done every single position within DF with a lot of pleasure. Due to a deployment i have been away from TAW for a year and joined back in 2008 with the Call of Duty Division. Then one year later i joined VG to launch at that time Delta Force Extreme 2. Well due to game not a good choise and then i went over to help out to get ARMA launched. For some strange reason the first time ARMA didn't worked out as it should and it was closed down. From there to BF Bad Company and stayed there till the opertunity came to join Central Command. Within CC i have been the CLC of 3th Corps, the CC of 4th Corps and my current position as SNC."
