Excellent post! Another member of the USAMU team, Max Michel Jr., hails from my very own shooting range. He is (or was, his enlistment may have recently ended) on the USAMU action shooting team, using open (unlimited) pistol. I heard him shoot during practice years ago - it sounded like automatic weapons fire! He holds the range record for the steel plate match - dropping 5 steel plates at a range of 25' starting with hands in a surrender position. His time: 1.80 seconds! Pretty amazing...

I have the honor of taking over as webmaster of Max's website (maxmichel.com.) As of this post, the transfer hasn't taken place yet, so if you take a look now, you're still seeing the old site. The temporary URL for the new site is http://www.gbundersea.com/max. (It's under construction, so not all of the features are working yet.)

The skill of Max and others like him is truly incredible. It's great to see those skills being utilized well, by training other troops. According to Max's bio, he instructed Special Forces, Navy Seals, Rangers, Military Police, and others.
