this is sad to hear but it doesn't surprise me.

when my Dad went to the island in 75 he was a top shot, so much so the senior DI got him to qualify for some of the other recruits who couldn't do it.

some folks just can't shoot worth a sh#t no matter how much training you give them.

I'd heard a few years ago from a jarhead who told me they weren't being trained on irons anymore.

Part of the Corps tradition has died.
