Airsoft
Working for MSW(Milsim West) has put me with a group of like minded Veterans across multiple combat arms jobs, special operations, and intel jobs- to give customers a proper light infantry experience via Airsoft without players having to join the military to experience it. A lot of these players have come from/plan on enlisting in the military at some point in their lives and I cherish every moment that i can be an influence to them in any way.
