AZbowhntr Report post Posted October 10, 2019 That is awesome. Congrats to you and especially her. Quite a difference from when I was in the Air Force. They let us touch a rifle on one day. And it wasn't even a real M16. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

300RUM Report post Posted October 13, 2019 Going into high school I believed I wanted to be an engineer. Half way through my junior year physics completely changed my mind. I dropped it and coasted through the rest of high school. I felt my options were get a job as skilled labor or enlist in the Marines. I took the easy road and hired on with a freight company driving semi-tractors. Congratulations to your daughter for taking the hard road and succeeding.

Delw Report post Posted October 20, 2019 We got back from Parris island last night. pretty cool butt place. Claudia came back with us We havent seen her since we got back shes visiting friends. lol Wife and I kinda fell in love with South Carolina. mainly due to the trees grass and Buildings/houses. We went to hunting Island for a while to look around that place was incredible. The beach there was just wild, looked like something out of Jurastic park. saw a bunch of swamp deer a badger tried to find one of the many Gators for Anthony to no avail. on the way back to Savannah airport I bet we saw 30 road kill deer a bunch with antlers attached some pretty nice ones. And yes the Kid is Always smiling. Her drill Instructor It'd her for smiling a few times. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Delw Report post Posted August 1, 2020 The Marines even taught her how to tie her boots too Kinda an inside joke as when we hunt/hike she never ties her boots. I noticed it one day in a picture after we hiked one of her favorite canyons on a elk hunt. she sent me some vids of them taking off tonight with the sun setting and dark way cool. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
