As Salvation Army, can I post in here?

It doesn't tie itself with anglican, catholic, pentecostal, baptist, any of that, so I guess here is the place for me.

Unfortunately though, there don't seem to be many in here, so I can't talk about soldiership, uniforms, and all the other army specifics!

Can I come in here though?

Yeah - generally in Australia and Life Stages... :) Plus a few in pentecostals (I was one for my early life), and one or two in odd bits that I see on the front page and capture my fancy (ie debate, entertainment, hobbies, etc)...

I was just looking for church specific denomination - and so far Salvos aren't mentioned anywhere :)

I identify with your problem. It used to be so much simpler before the "schism/reformation" that occured a few months ago. Prior to that the congregations were primarily just PRE or OBOB (with a couple of other exceptions). Now its "denomination city", however not every denomination is covered and so those of us who are not included no longer have a home.
The problem with Non-Denom is that a lot of people think this is just an open slather part of the board and don't treat it with much respect, and you can't really post anywhere else as if you use a denomination specific area you are not allowed to debate/discuss as each one has a fellowship post rule.
On top of this if you want to post a topic and get a good cross section view, then you would have to post it in each denom. It used to be really good that when you started a thread in PRE you would get all manner of input and opinon from all faith streams. CF used to be a great Christian message board, however, personally I feel the big split has been a giant step backwards. People are building walls instead of bridges.

I could be mistaken, but aren't Salvation Army Churches basically Westlyan (like Methodists)?

In Christ,

Daniel is right, the Salvation Army is Wesleyan based.

Sascha--you are more than welcome to join us at Wesley's Parish :hug: .
