We speak each other’s language you might say. I can’t be offended by profanity. It’s just not possible. As a matter of fact I enjoy a good old profanity laced conversation. Just saying.....

It has so many applications! LOL It applies to something or somebody that is totally awesome or to something or somebody that is a POS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 l was a SP/5 but was only in for three years in the ASA. Even in that short time I'm sure I heard 99% of all available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was a great rank structure. Mess halls were ran by spec 7’s who wanted no part in being and SFC and combat leadership. We had tank gunners who were spec 5’s. Medics were all specs etc. what did you do in the Army? I’d love to hear your story. Thank you for your service! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ima45dv8 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 In 2004 I shot the Alabama State match on a very strange day. Literally, there was snow and ice on the roads making the trip in REAL sketchy (in Alabama!!!). By that afternoon, the skies had cleared and we were stripping down to t-shirts and actually getting sunburned. But that was nothing compared to this crazy sumbitch the MD introduced me to and said would be shooting on our squad. Tony (who I immediately started calling, "Yo, Antny!" ) had just processed out and was fully charged with piss and vinegar. I had more fun that day than the proverbial barrel o' monkeys. I've been able to bump into him at a couple of matches since then, and though we weren't shooting together, it was always a hoot to catch up with him. Tony's a good guy who deserves the good things coming his way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerTrace Posted September 9, 2018 Author Share Posted September 9, 2018 He had a business called Velocity Shooter for a while snd sponsored a ton of shooters in the DFW area. I shot with him at the Double Tap Championship a couple times. Just a super, fun guy. I noticed on FB that he's looking for a practice range in the Austin area. He told somebody he wasn't leaving Texas ever again......we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
