Breaking News:  Annapolis.. Dec 2012

Maryland's 100th Rifleman is  :pop:.... drumroll please....    Tony G!   Congratulations! ..:..  O0 ^:)^
(as much as I tried, I couldn't get a Blue Angels flyover for this milestone.. ^-^  Maybe at our 500th Rifleman event ?)

Please join me in congratulating NavyIrish, who has joined the cadre of Red Hat instructors! He's been a stalwart of the MD program and I'm thrilled to see him make this milestone!  O0 O0 O0     

And last but not least, help me welcome NOMADSS, who has joined the cadre as an IIT! I suspect he will quickly become a much valued asset to Appleseed and thank him for stepping up help us bail the sinking ship!


I don't know what we can do to top the milestones achieved at the Annapolis Dec 2012 class   :-\  but I'm sure we'll come up with something!

Very good news indeed.

The way to top it is to make another 100 rifleman next year.  Good job all.
"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

It would be hard to find a more knowledgeable, selfless, and dedicated instructor than NavyIrish. A well earned congratulations  ^:)^
