WOOT WOOT -- Chewie!!

If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. (James Madison)

"Young man, what we meant in going for those Redcoats was this: we always had governed ourselves and we always meant to. They didn't mean we should."
(Captain Levi Preston, of the Danvers militia, at age 91, remembering the day)

That it is an indispensable duty which we owe to God, our country, ourselves and posterity, by all lawful ways and means in our power to maintain, defend and preserve those civil and religious rights and liberties, for which many of our fathers fought, bled and died, and to hand them down entire to future generations.  Suffolk Resolves, September 9, 1774, attributed to Dr. Joseph Warren

"The cost of a thing is the amount of life required to be exchanged for it, immediately or in the long run. When one has obtained those essentials necessary for well-being â€" food, shelter, warmth, and clothing, there is an alternative to struggling through steel jungles for the luxuries. That's to adventure on life itself, one's vacation from humble toil having commenced." -Townsend Whelen

This makes me very happy to hear! I am sorry to say I have been otherwise occupied to the point I had not noticed your progression through the IIT ranks, or I would have mentioned it sooner.

IL will be well served, and our country another bit better off.

Thanks,

DAve

wow don't know how I missed this tread sorry for the super late reply on this but thank you everyone. It has a been a long journey but I got a swift kick in the pants to finish it up. Thanks to YellowhouseJake for getting me started on the instructor path I hope to make it to a shoot in IN with you sometime soon. Looking forward to many years of AS and helping the program to grow.

Sorry Rich I should check my email more often.  :wb: :wb:

"I have many times asked the American backwoodsman what their best marksman could do. They tell me that an expert rifleman can hit the head of a man at 200yds. I am certain that provided an American rifleman could get perfect aim at 300yds would undoubtedly hit me unless it was a very windy day" Maj Hanger British Army
