The real AAR info should come out in a day or two but I didn't want a couple of different threads about it so I started this one to let everyone know I've posted a fairly short notice on two other forums about it.

On afrcom VA and WV are on the same sub forum under the Hometown section.  I followed up a post of The Machine's about the April 19 weekend Appleseed with a little info about this IBC to advertise IBCs in general in the hope of building interest there.

On M14 Firing Line I posted in the regional section (southeast) to let folks there know we'd had the first VA IBC as well as a little bit about what we did and to say that there might be another one later this year if there was enough interest.

If you get chance to get over on those and confirm you experiences at an IBC, please do so.

"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

—Jeff Cooper, The Art of the Rifle

This boot camp really brought the message home for me.  Many thanks to VAShooter, Dinky Dao, Old Guy, and Truculent Turtle for making this a worth while weekend.  It's like an Appleseed to a new shooter, just about too much to learn in the short 3 days.   I look forward to working with everyone there.

A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.' That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.'
