I recall fondly my M-16A1 in boot camp. The best part of the rifle range was actually shooting. I shot 10 bulls eyes at 500 meters. When we weren’t shooting the DI’s were putting us through all sorts of hell so we all wanted to shoot more.
“When we weren’t shooting the DI’s”
Shooting DIs? They didn’t give to you a dishonorable discharge for that? Why aren’t you in prison? :-)
