PleasedtoAim has come through the grind of the instructor process and has advanced to full instructor.  She had the added benefit of becoming an instructor in front of the ladies at our recent Ladyseed!  Now, that is the way to inspire!  Great Job!
For PleasedtoAim,

"Responsibility is a unique concept... You may share it with others, but your portion is not diminished. You may delegate it, but it is still with you... If responsibility is rightfully yours, no evasion, or ignorance or passing the blame can shift the burden to someone else. Unless you can point your finger at the man who is responsible when something goes wrong, then you have never had anyone really responsible."
― Hyman G. Rickover

Outstanding. What an inspiration to those who had the opportunity to attend.  Thanks for all of the work and dedication that it takes to reach this level.   :bow:

Hard to believe that less than six years ago PtA had never handled a firearm. Now she frequently outscores me.

Her ability to instruct in different ways that release the AHA! moment in the student's mind, especially with beginners and juniors, is most impressive.

This is her superpower.  Just ask Mini Monkey.

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
