The MN Appleseed gang would like to take this opportunity announce that MARTIN has completed all requirements to wear the Green Hat!

Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah!

Even with a few curves thrown at him, he managed to pull off a great final SBIT Appleseed.

Congrats Martin!!!!!!!!

Martin will be a great asset to both Wisconsin and Minnesota!




...............but I know the real truth!   Martin has a secret............................................a secret to his success! :cool2:


You see,  Martin's wife Joann (RustyRed on the forum) is a blue hat volunteer who comes with him to all he shoots.  She really works hard "behind the scenes" getting things organized at shoots.  She is also good at keeping a watchful eye for stray dogs who may run on the firing line while shooters fill the red coat targets wih holes!

I know Martin will wear that Green Hat with pride and will bring years of knowledge, wisdom, and passion to every shoot! :bow:
It will be hard to stop Martin and Joann.  They both have very large buckets that get heavy when full, but that won't slow them down!

This is VERY well deserved!  I look forward to working with you at shoots!!!! :---

Congratulations to Martin for his well earned and deserved promotion to SHOOT BOSS O0
"These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives everything its value."   T Paine

Criticism is the only known antidote to error.  David Brin

What a nation has done, a nation can aspire to.
Dr. Jerry Pournelle

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.

This is known as "bad luck."
---Robert Anson Heinlein
