Congratulations go to ChuckA for his recent promotion to Shoot Boss.  He did an incredible job this past weekend completing his SBiT3 progress check.  He crushed it!  Thank you for taking on the bigger bucket as you rebuild the Illini state's Project Appleseed Program. :partytime:

Our cause is just . . . our country will be grateful - George Rogers Clark

"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

Thanks All, its an honor to be trusted to take a little more of the reigns.

Many thanks to Geek, 209Ken, and Sur+Rifle for mentorship on the SBITS, and to the SB's who got me hooked on AS years ago MAL and JamesT.
