Title: Texas Has a Brand New Red Hat!!!
Post by: AF5US on August 02, 2022, 12:33:04 PM
Ladies and gentlemen, it is with great pleasure that I announce the recent promotion of our very own MRAKESTRAW to full instructor!

:F  :F  :F Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah!  :F  :F  :F
O0  O0  O0

MRAKESTRAW delivered the points of instruction with excellence and confidence.  He is a strong proponent of that thing that we call "liberty" and hold so dear.  He's also very much into the pistol scene, and with a pistol IBC coming up in two weeks the timing is excellent.  Glad to have you with us!

Unfortunately the lighting for the hat transfer is terrible.  If anyone else has a better picture please share.

Oh, right.  One other thing - we decided to go ahead and allow everyone on the firing line to retire that orange hat with prejudice.  A 13 round volley of prejudice, to be precise.   :snipersmi

Oh wait. It WAS only last year  ;D. Well done, brother  :beer:

Thanks everyone! It's been a fun road to get here and I look forward to many more events! Just last year I attended my first Appleseed taught my Mrs. Smith, then got my orange hat from Kproctor, and with help and inspiration from Steck, AF5US, Ghostring, and the whole north Texas Appleseed gang earned my red hat.  It's been a blast and I hope to learn more, teach more, and spread our message to more eager ears.
