Engineer shooting

Young man from out of state comes to The Tallahassee RBC. He had previously attended two Appleseed's, top score 170. At the RBC he scored Rifleman using iron sights. Then he kept progressing and scored Distinguished!

Even with a sold out event the Instructors, the best of the best, outnumbered the students.

What a mountain top experience!  My boys are going to tell their grandkids about the week they had at IDMR.  We all scored, but the real richness of the program was you and your instructors, their expertise, what they cared enough to build into us, the relationships forged, the exceptional facility and the fellowship of the week.  Trailmen love their country and "know very well what they are about" but you greatly deepened that for them this week.  Plus, you greatly multiplied the ranks of instructors with a ton of new Orange Hats.  We'll be honored to carry the message.  Thanks so much for putting this on.  I can't imagine a finer experience!

What an incredible experience.   It was my honor to cook for this group and serve as Applecore.  We started off cold and ended with rain.

"This country has been made by the Timothy Murphys, the men in the ranks. Conditions here called for qualities of heart and hand that Tim Murphy had in abundance. Our histories should tell us more about the men in the ranks, for it was to them, more than to the generals that we were indebted for our military victories." -  Franklin Delano Roosevelt, as New York Governor, 1929, at the dedication of the memorial to Murphy

This was an awesome week with a wide range of skills and ages on the line. The week started a little cool, around 23 degrees but the cold didn't scare this hearty group of patriots, they were ready to go. Day one it was clear that every one here wanted to learn and that's exactly what they did. Most excelled quickly while some required a little more attention but the results tell it all, the week ended with many new rifleman and orange hats were everywhere.
There were new friends made and the time spent with the IDMR cadre is always time enjoyed. The history as told by Engineer shooting is complete, factual and always presented with passion.
Congratulations to all receiving patches and hats they are all well deserved.
Thanks Ken and Lori for all you have committed to Appleseed, no one has given more. Thanks for hosting another great event hope to do it all again soon
