Grunt Soldier earned his red hat this weekend in Nashville. It was a pleasure for me to present it to him after 7th stepping him to his first shoot in Friendship where he shot Rifleman, and then seeing him take his orange hat in Indy a short time later. I got to see his skills put to use this weekend on everything from a shy youth shooter to a persisting seeder and everything in between. He will be a great asset to Project Appleseed for sure.
Congratulations sir!

I know there are some pics out there somewhere. :pics:

Indiana Appleseed:  Farm Bred, Brass Fed

Lord make me fast and accurate. Let my aim be true, and my hands faster than those who would seek to destroy me.  Grant me victory over my foes, and those  that wish to do harm to me and mine. Let not my last thought be if I only had my Gun; and Lord if today is truly the day that you take me home, let me die in a pile of empty brass.

I remember that first 'seed in Friendship, drizzly as it was your smile never diminished. I was sure then you would end up here, looking forward to working with you many times in the future.

So when do we put a hat on her?

Lol YHJ that shoot got me hooked and my little one asks every time can she come.  I don't think I will hold out on her to much longer.  probably in september when she turns 7 I'll bring her to shoot and we will go from there :)

For Liberty, each Freeman Strives
As its a Gift of God
And for it willing yield their Lives
And Seal it with their Blood

Thrice happy they who thus resign
Into the peacefull Grave
Much better there, in Death Confin'd
Than a Surviving Slave

This Motto may adorn their Tombs,

Than live as Slaves to You"
