I am not sure where to post this but someone will come to help.
As some of you know last April 17 my platoon and I were involved in a firefight in Afghanistan. With me were 2 Appleseed qualified Rifleman, and 4 others who had qualified over 210 on the AQT.
Well, that battle is featured in a new book by Mike Tucker called "Bring the Heat" it tells the story better than I do. The book features many other stories of modern Marksmanship. It is also a very real look at the war. I think you can get it at amazon.

    If "Appleseed" is mentioned in connection with your firefight there'll prob be 5000+ sales, just from this site... :)

    If it's not mentioned, how about taking a stab at describing how your Appleseed experience/skills resulted in better marksmanship performance on the battlefield...

     What about it, do-nothings? You heard the man, jump on in...

 Fred, I can do that. I will get it out to you most ricky tick. The author was supposed to get Appleseed mentioned, but it didnt make the cut along with some other details. He is doing update for the book I will reengage with him on it.
