As a young L/Cpl at Camp LeJeune, I shot clays, skeet style, with the 2nd FSSG Team. We are just funnin’ with the story presented, and I’m really sorry that I have to tell a fellow FReeper such.
Let me buzzkill you...all I have to plant my garden in is clay. I have to make my own dirt. Are you self sufficient?
Good for you that you know the real story. However, not all of
the respondents are necessarily L/Cpls @ Camp Lejeune who
are experienced shotgunners @ ranges. It is a pity that I have to
tell a fellow FReeper “If the shoe don’t fit, don’t wear it.” Besides
that, it was actually the author of the article who apparently
messed up, confusing shooting type with targets. I like sarcastic
humor as much as the next person but those who might come
away from this thread with a misconception might end up with
egg on their face if they someday say “skeet” when they mean
“clay pigeons”. I guaranty you that there are a few libs out there
who know the difference.
As a matter of fact I am as self sufficent as need to be. I can grow
food and shoot and live in a house in the center of 360 degrees
of a pine and oak forest.
