Hey everyone. Bobby Fowler Here. New to carry. Nice to meet you.
A big welcome, looking back I wish I had done something like that, I really think I would have been better off for it, better be careful, once you get really interested in this, it can get expensive.....LOLRoger Dodger Buddy,
Once a Marine, always.......eh :sarcastic: Did Nam, went back in (Navy) finished with Desert Storm, retiring
with 23 years at E-6. "Sky Pilot" (Remember that one?), after tree tops, comes the ocean. Where as ship's swimmer,
I would swim out and rescue downed pilots that managed to make it to the "Tonkin". Then Again, I recovered other thingsic of a jet powered drone (was lost by some aircraftcarrier). We "Plucked" it because of it being a hazard to navigation.

Then on my 21ST Birthday, I was Honorably Discharged, I think I'm still hung over! Six years later I reenlisted in 1973
and finished with 23 years of service in 1993.
I'm now retired also, from the city of Reno, Nevada. Working in the city's police department, I had access to what was going on in the city. I became aware at just how bad the crime rate was, the types of crime had become more and more violent. Kids grown and gone, my Wife and I were alone. One day, she said, "We need a gun", after watching the local news! This from my ANTI-GUN WIFE, I knew it was time to get armed.
So my civilian lifestyle includes weapons, I figure an ole' dog like me is never to old to learn and share here. I appreciate all of you guys and your WELCOME!
