Acorn Mush said:It really was a kick reading some of the good-natured jibes being tossed about during the recent "hostilities". Thanks guys for a lot of laughs!
Something is bothering me though, and perhaps y'all can help me figure this all out. The good ol' U.S. of A. team had 20 shooters and managed a total of 16 "kills", for an average of 0.8 "kills" per shooter. The "Also Ran" team consisted of only 9 shooters yet managed to get 9 "kills", an average 1.0 per shooter. Seems to me all them furriners is better shots than us guys on a per-shooter basis. :redface:
Do we need more practice? :grin:
I shall now don my Nomex fire-resistant suit, retreat to my underground bunker in an undisclosed location, and await the inevitable and well-deserved loads of cannister and grapeshot cast haphazardly in my direction.
Well Mush, it's like this...
Several of our soldiers took their shots on, or right after, St. Patricks day. :shake:
And they made us shoot METRIC targets so some of our soldiers weren't exactly sure where to aim.
AND our percentages would have been better if Mountainman56 hadn't a sneaked back ACROSS THE BORDER to take his shot. :slap: :slap: :slap:
Anyhow, we didn't want to have to kill 'em ALL TWICE. :blah:
That's my story. :grin:
