Project Appleseed

Another beautiful weekend at Slippery Rock Sportsmans Club, thank you for the use of your great range.

A great group of Americans turned out to improve their Marksmanship and learn about their Heritage.

Thanks to Brickhouse for comming up to help us out on this busy weekend in western Pennsylvania.

It was a very productive weekend with Bruce not only getting over the hump and scoring Rifleman but stepping up and taking an Orange Hat!

Everyone made good progress as shown by the Red Coat targets.

More to come later,

Stand

Stand had the crowd enraptured during the telling of the third strike of the match.

Hmmm.... maybe it was exhaustion not rapture.... Guys thanks for leaving it all out there. It was a pleasure to be with such hard working Americans.

Oh, and Bruce- how's that IIT0 progress check coming? Please be sure to check your email.

HUZZAH!  Congratulations, Bruce!  Wish I could have been there.  And thanks for stepping up and taking the HAT!

IIT pop quiz, who said "what we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly"?  Be proud of that patch, 'cause you WORKED for it!

Thanks Guys, I would not have made it (even persisted) without your help and encouragement.
