Gee, you’d have wanted to go to High School in the ‘60’s or earlier. My wife’s HS had competitive rifle/pistol teams until she graduated (1967). My HS had teams up to ‘62 when our range was declared unsafe due to the sole entrance being next to the target end of the range.
Lettered 3 years in a row on our NJROTC rifle team in Indiana - graduated 1985. About 2 years fter I went to USNA (first academy appointment from my high school) the new principal/school board managed to get the NJROTC ousted. Huge loss for the school.
