A sad day indeed

Very sad indeed. He was an inspiration for many. Hed will be missed terribly.

For me too. He was certainly one of the greatest inspirations of all times for the younger generation that has not kept up w/ many of the WWll vets.

That's the only way they'd EVER get it!

My wife just told me this afternoon that he passed.

We owe him a lot of gratitude for his time serving gun owners.

What do you know, a quote from the Washington Post I like... "Thou shalt be armed".
