A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

"Paradise" as in Parris Island MCRD? I gather he did not need the PCP then, if he passed his IST. I don't think I could pass it... I don't think I could do 2 pull ups to save my soul.

Bravo Zulu.

Correct! Not to sound like a braggart, but at soon to be 51 I still can pass it. The rest is a whole nother story.

Yes, sir! I plan on going down for his graduation. It's going to be a bittersweet visit for me.
