If you do nothing else today (or tomorrow) you need to go read this!
Next year instead of the California International Marathon which I have done once and My little (5′2″) twin sister has done many, many times.
I want to vacation next October in DC with my sister and any/all of you willing to spend 5 - 7 days in DC and do the Marine Corps Marathon with me!
Who else is willing to do this?
I wonder if TNT is doing this race? Yep, I wonder if I should do this as a TNT racer or chose one of the other (Semper Fi Fund, Armed Forces Foundation, Marine Corps Reserve Association, Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation, Ulman Cancer Fund, American Institute for Cancer Research) charities this year?
there are a lot of choices and they are all good from what I know ( I did TNT) already, and my dad has Cancer right now, and My sister is a Survivor. Which one to support?
Who is with me?
And the race to support American Heros gets a little dirty a little early!
First to Fight rings true!

Valour-IT announces this year’s competition.
the new Marine Corps Forces, Special Operations Command’s Foreign Military Training Unit is doing Foreign Military training. I still do not agree with the need for ‘Marine Corps Forces, Special Operations Command’ but I am hearing good things about the capabilities it brings to the SOCOM. But the MAGTAF is still a key part of the projection of force for America.
As part of this graduation exercise, the Marine trainers need to shape this rowdy group into a tight-knit fighting force. Normally, it could take months to accomplish.
But the clock is ticking for the Marines because they’re under orders to expand the nation’s special-operations forces and bolster foreign internal defenses. Col. Michael N. Peznola, the unit’s commander, said they would “work with partner nations . . . to help them help themselves.”
This sounds like the Army training….heh, maybe sometime I will have to change my opinion but not yet.

At a recent gun show in AZ I talked to a vendor selling Gun Juice and was very skeptical of its use. I have never been a believer in fix every thing additives. I was have always been a skeptic about claims that this cure all oil would fix this or that. but looking at the 1911 the lady had I liked the look of what the gun juice did to the metal and how the gun felt like it was dry polished and the action was very very smooth. I bought a 1.5 ounce bottle of Microlon Gun Juice to try on my new kimber .45 Pro Cary II and an old 30/30 that was pretty dirty.
I went to Ben Avery with this little bottle and followed the procedures first with the .45. the with the 30/30 on a sighting stand.
“WOW” is all I could say. It took time to shoot one round and patch over and over again but I ran 10 patches through each and then shot 100 rounds each after that. I gained about 3 inches rise on the 30/30 and after 100 rounds I pulled 2 patches through (dry) and the second patch was clean. I put some CLP on a brush and pulled it through several times and then a wet patch and it was wet but clean.
I might have to try some Wolf Russian made ammo and see if it can shoot the cheap ammo now without having to spend hours and hours cleaning it afterwards.
I bought a 4 oz bottle (can) of gun juice so I could condition the frame and slides on the .45 and a couple other weapons and followed the Mad Ogre review of gun juice. I heated my oven to 500 degrees and put in the broken down parts for a couple minutes. I then used a patch to apply the gun juice to the metal parts and allow to dry. I did this process 10 times letting the parts cool after each application. I can see a difference in working the action and the pull of the slide. It is much smother and sure than before the conditioning.
If you like to shoot but don’t like to clean afterwards (at least for a couple hours) try Gun Juice.

I have heard people talk about this quote for a while but never saw the actual quote. What say you America! do you want to live under Sharia law
“Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith but to become dominant. The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.” (stated at Islamic conference held in Freemont, California, July of 1998)

If you want this Vote Democrat! (not that I am trying to scare you or anything)
In a Weekly Standard article Michael slaps the DOD lack of leadership in the area if public relations. this is the group that is not letting the good information out to the public as much as the MSM is not wanting to let it out.
But we can and should complain when authorities willfully limit war reporting. We should do so whether it happens as a matter of policy, or through incompetence or bureaucratic sloth. The result is the same in any case. And once the matter has been brought to the attention of the military and the Pentagon–which I have quietly done–and still the situation is not rectified, it is time for a public accounting.
Go read the whole thing, and t6hen support Michael in his efforts.
