    Well, I did it...

    I'm one of 179 or so new 2ndLts in the USMC. I graduated and commissioned this past Friday and TBS starts tomorrow morning. Once I get to the rifle and pistol range (which I hear will be in the first few weeks after we in-process) hopefully I'll be able to use some of what I learned with you all... although there's the right way, the wrong way, and the Marine Corps way, so who knows.

    Anyhow, thanks for all you've all taught me as instructors, AIs, fellow shooters, and those that have organized the events I've attended. Hopefully I'll be able to find the time every now and again to show my face back on those OH ranges.

    Congratulations. I just graduated OTS on 3 March, but I'm back to my guard unit.

    Congratulations. Good to know we have some more straight shooters protecting us.

    Conrats CD, nice job! We're gonna miss you on the range this year. But what you're doing now is waaaay more important.

    Take care of your men and they will take care of you. Stay safe Lt.
