Ramblin' Wreck

Last weekend we had an Appleseed here at our range in north Georgia and two Pennsylvania National Guardsmen from Glen Lyon and Shickshinny who were attending a technical school nearby came to the event. Jeff S and Chris D both made great progress. After having some problems with .22's (now chalked up to bad ammo) we loaned them a couple of AR's. Jeff ended up shooting a 210 and getting his Rifleman patch and the attendant 210 christening. Both these guys would serve well in colored hats if you can talk them into taking one.


One last thing, they're great guys and they're tough! They both spent Saturday in 95 degree heat with 90+ % humidity in long sleeved flannel shirts. They must have been acclimated by weather from their last deployment.

Jeff I like the hybrid sitting/kneeling position. Congratulations to both of you!!
"A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government." — George Washington

"Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it." --Mark Twain (1835-1910)

"A constitution is not the act of a government, but of a people constituting a government; and government without a constitution is power without a right. All power exercised over a nation, must have some beginning. It must be either delegated, or assumed. There are not other sources. All delegated power is trust, and all assumed power is usurpation. Time does not alter the nature and quality of either." ~ Thomas Paine

Way to go Guys!  When are you comming to a Seed at home?
Last evening, it occurred to me that when a defender of Liberty is called home, their load lands upon the shoulders of the defenders left behind. Just as the Founders did their duty for Liberty, every subsequent generation must continue their work lest Liberty perish. As there is no way for the remaining adults to take on the work of those that die, we must pass the ideals and duties on to the children. -PHenery
