Title: Hurlburt AFB, Florida, April 23-24 2016
Post by: Engineer shooting on April 26, 2016, 03:36:06 PM
Hurlburt AFB

Random thoughts: Sold out event. Three Brewer girls, two IIT's the third aged 9 (she scored 213), IIT dad at home babysitting. Kuan struggled with the rifle he had until the last AQT of the weekend (rapid fire) borrows a rifle and scores 198. Thomas came back and scored a 210 and received some North Bridge water. Chuck determined to shoot an iron sighted AR with "old" eyes and did more than fine.

How great an event? Here's a hint: thanks goes to the IIT's Kyla, Brandy, Reid, George,  Kim, Chuck and Mike and the Instructors Bob, Richard, and Lori. Extra thanks to Kim and Chuck setting up the range. Eleven Instructors, it was like an Instructor Boot Camp. Kim and Chuck telling a brave young woman and a dangerous old man story...and gentlemen abed. Shall think themselves accursed they were not here. And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks. That shot with us at Hurlburt Field.

Hi Kim,
  Ken wanted to know if I could help out at the events. I would like to assist you all when I can. I can help in setting up and what ever is required of me mainly in the Destin -Pensacola area. I enjoyed working under the Appleseed instructors and would be honored to help.
I am not always available but I will try to assist when I can. Thank you for the chance to improve my marksmanship.

Great to hear about Appleseed events at Hurbie! I was stationed there for 9 of my 20 year career...still have lots of friend there. I'll get the word out and maybe get some more shooters!

Sounds like it was a good time!

Great Shoot, and thanks to all the instructors for a great weekend. 


The following week I was fortunate enough to put some perspective against the history presented.


Looking forward to the next event!


Cheers.
