WOW!  This weekend was a whirlwind of names, faces and stories.  It was good to see some dedicated Americans coming out to re-connect to their heritage.  On Saturday we had two persevering people score Rifleman (Cameron O. and SFC Terry B).  Both had been to Appleseeds before.  On Sunday, we had one Rifleman (SFC Dave M.) come back to re-score Rifleman and join the Instructor Corps as an IIT.

It is also good to have seen 6 youth shooters out.

Pictures will follow soon.

Here are the links to the articles I used in my very brief class on advanced marksmanship:

Sorry I didn't get any of the new IIT ceremony.  I was to caught up in watching than taking pictures.  That's why my wife usually has the camera.
