huntershooter Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 I've heard of (and used) a quote attributed to Theodore Roosevelt about "America's Third Line of Defense." I've searched the web and usenet with no luck. Can anyone provide a definitive source of this quote and its exact wording? When and where did he say or write it? How does it relate to the President's Hundred (which I'm pretty sure was instituted with T. Roosevelt as well) And specifically was he referring to, all trained civilian marksmen or the NRA specifically (back when they were a little more serious about promoting shooting ;-) Fast X, John Buol http://www.huntershooter.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huntershooter Posted October 2, 2002 Author Share Posted October 2, 2002 OK, I'm *very* familiar with that "Magic Bullets" piece at the USARC Small Arms Readiness Group website because I wrote it! This is my unit, and I'm the webmaster. As I said, I've used the quote before but I want more details as to its origins. When and where did Roosevelt say/write it? What specifically was he referring too? Etc.?? Fast X, John Buol www.HunterShooter.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
