We had another great event at L.E. Duncans Rainbow Range. I first would like apologize for the delay in posting this AAR. I have had an extremely busy time at work along with my son getting married this last Wednesday and all that day entailed over the last two weeks. Thank You. Norm

We had an enthusiastic group of shooters over the weekend who listened to the Welcome, safety briefings and instruction. The shooters helped out with the range and ez-up setup that was much appreciated by myself and the instructors. A special shout out to our instructor Joe who was there for the whole weekend helping out where he could despite breaking his wrist the Thursday before the shoot while bike riding. Riflemen persevere!  The weather was typical for Rainbow with a lot of wind, cooler than normal temperature, a slight mist on Saturday and rain overnight into Sunday. The first Redcoat showed we had work to do and we got down to the business of instruction. The lunch history was well received and we were able to get in 2 AQT's on Saturday and 6 on Sunday. Scores improved and we ended the shoot with two new riflemen and one repeat, We had two people accept the orange hat, Steve will be promoted from Applecore to IIT along with John who was the repeat riflemen. Congratulations too James as well for shooting his riflemen score. A good portion of the shooters stayed around to help clean up the range and put away all of the gear. It was very much appreciated. Thank You all. Norm


 
A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks.
Thomas Jefferson

This is great news!
Congratulations Steve, and Therese and I are happy you guys had a great shoot!
Very sad about the new legislation, we'll be praying for you all here in Japan!
Kurt and Therese.
"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."
Samuel Adams, September 1722 -- October, 1803
