    I remember that show and have the same lump in my throat now as I did when I first saw it. My Dad was a WWII vet as were my uncles. A very humble generation to say the least. Their view point on the war and what they did was simple - it was my job . . . I did my job. Nothing more, nothing less. My Dad spoke very little of the war and truly I didn't find out about his contributions until after he passed in '92 when I as an adult went through that old dusty OD green footlocker that was hidden away in the basement. Truely a humble generation.
    I'm only smiling at you while you talk to me because it's hilarious that you really think I give a crap about you.

    As I've gotten older I thought I was gaining patience, then I realized I simply don't give a crap.

        That's the way all of our Vets should be treated!

          That is great.
          Hats off to your old man as well.

            I read somewhere a 4-5 years ago that the number is a staggering 1500 +/- a day.

                5" grouping at 1000yds? not bad for an old man.



                I kid, excellent shooting!

                        Damn good shot not once but THREE HEAD SHOTS as guy stated at end "IMPOSSIBLE". Anybody who served in any war should be treated with respect that they deserve.

                          Wow, that's some fine shooting. Good to see our vets treated the way they should be
