    Semper Fi!!

    Gotta be more Marines than that!

    '80-'84. 7th Marines, 1st Combat Engineer Battalion. But ended up going to Scout/Sniper school and becoming a Primary Marksmanship Instructor and member of the 1st Mar Div Rifle & Pistol Team. Made the Marine Corps Rifle Team and spent most of my summers at Quantico and on the road shooting matches. Great times for sure, but civilian life was calling. I ultimately retired from the Border Patrol after 26 years. Now just an old retired guy enjoying my new Ram pickup.

    Semper Fi

    Let's see, served in 80-84. So you were 'bout 20 in 80. Many of us were out and raising a family when you were born. Sort of wet behind the ears to many of us.

    Thanks for your service .. congrats on the retirement .. welcome to the old farts club .. and don't forget the Army ..

    LOL! No sir, I spent a lot of time with you guys at Ft. Lost In The Woods and Benning. The Army Marksmanship Unit was one of our biggest opponents on the range. Wet behind the ears...my dad used to use that phrase quite often. Thank you...and thank you for your service as well.
