One Shot, One Kill

How I spent Memorial Day weekend last year.





This is Carlos N. Hathcock III. He was my raggie on the 46 and rifle team mate. His actual MOS was support equipment but helo's don't have much GSE so we got him flight status and he eventually qual'd as a crewchief. We have been close friends for the better part of 15 years. He retired last summer after 22 years.
 
Pretty thin I would guess. He travels doing range safety for the government about 50% of the time these days. I e-mail a couple times a week and get him about twice. Some weeks when he's home, he'll answer all of the mails at once. Besides, if he posts here, he'll be able to refute all the bad stuff I say about him.

FYI-For those who read my post about my buddy Russ who died a while back, (First One Gone) Carlos was the one to recieve the call. He was in Germany at the time, but didn't get the voicemail until he returned. He and Russ were much closer than Russ and I.
