Welcome and thank you for your service – because, even though you are not yet sworn (we will surely see to that at your local/state group), you have voluntarily taken it upon yourself to teach a valuable skill and to ‘tell the story’ of how brave men and women, who only wanted to be left alone on their farms, stared down tyranny 234 years ago.

When the chips are down we who served before will serve again. As far as marksmanship goes It's different for me now. Timing is everything now because now I have to pull the trigger at the right time (when the barrel is dead on the target not when I'm steady) I'll still try! Your never too old to serve! We seem to have lost our resolve to uphold the constitution and have moved to much to big Government control and giveaway to the Idle. I don't mind giving to those that can't help themselves But even they should be required to contribute what they can to help those around them.
