That's a gnarly looking crewe there showing some fierce support to a good cause!!:lol:
Bring me one of those ACOG equipped shooters you got there D.H. I read somewhere that our guys are such good shots they were looking into why there were so many bad guys with just one shot to the head.

I am getting a list of all the guys in the picture for Billy Ray and then I will post it up on here. The three guys on the front row starting with the guy in the center and the two guys to his right and left are from Arkansas. You can see their diamond shaped patch on their left shoulder. They were assigned to us and have been a great bunch of guys.

DuckDeke,

Got a buddy that lives year in Woodstock. Maybe we can all get together sometime. I plan on trying to come out for a visit in Jan. or Feb.

Come on over man, Woodstock is "right down the road" (relative term in ATL) from me. Sounds like a good time.

155TH Green Head Mama,

I believe they have all seen it as your husband took several with his camera as well. The picture has already been sent off to Echo Duck Calls, RNT Duck Calls and Buck Gardner Duck Calls. I met Buck several years ago and the Jackson Outdoor Extravaganza and I received an email from him yesterday stating that the picture has been sent to their web person to be placed on their website. I will let you know when it is posted there. They had to crop out the DU flag due to copyrights and all. Said to post the picture with the DU flag that they would have to receive a written statement from DU giving them permission to post it on their site.

Just some more info.
