Jake took the rifle merit badge at scout camp this week.  Here was one of his targets.  This is why I want him on my team when it all goes in the crapper.

I want to pick me up a nice .22 for some target shooting too.

Damn, they're still using exactly the same targets that we used back when I used to work at camp in the early '80s!


Knowing Scout camps, they probably bought those targets in the early '80s.

Shooting from a prone position with iron sights that is excellent work!

Hope both he and his Daddy are proud!

The most shocking fact about war is that its victims and its instruments are individual human beings, and that these individual beings are condemned by the monstrous conventions of politics to murder or be murdered in quarrels not their own. Aldous Huxley
