[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 71398, member: 8"] It is really a shame that this lesson had to be "re-learned". The Army had many good marksmanship programs pre-RVN and recognized that in the end it comes down to the guy (or girl - the world has changed! ) on the ground and what he can do with what he has in his hands. I think back on the Sarge who was my coach on the Univ. of Ala. rifle team and his patience with me and all of my squirrel hunting shooting techniques. He did his very best to teach me things that I that I needed to know. I can remember laying on that ole green canvas mat and hearing his footstep coming my way and I would know he was going to tap the sole of my left shoe because I didnot have it correctly rested but cocked over and under tension. I was the worst shot on the team but he spent just as much, if not more, time with me as anyone else. A very nice post about an effort that will help some of the kids get back home safely. [/QUOTE]
