A group was doing an inventory of an Army installation and they found leaky barracks and armories. The weapons were rusting in the racks. I noticed that some of our guys in Afganistan had the black worn off the M-4s and you could see the aluminum showing through. I think it was last year when the army didn't have any 9MM ammo to train with. They ran out. I shoot with some reservists and all they do is shake their heads. I bought 6 rifle slings for some Marine Reservists last year because they didn't have any. To be ironic about it, I bought the slings from the CMP. I took a pistol class and the instuctors didn't have a good thing to say about how the SEALs shoot. I took a rifle class and the instructors didn't have a good thing to say how the SEALs shoot.

You know who I blame for all of this. I just don't want to mention the %&*#@&%$'s name or that cow he's "married" to.

This is a national disgrace. We send these people out to risk their lives for us, and don't give them sufficient training.
