June- 23Went on machine gun range and
had our first shooting with live
ammunition- out of 22 shots I had
14 bulls eyes- thats not bad but
could be lots better- I think the
coach I had did not know as much
about it as I did- next time I think
I’ll really show him something- My
left ear is still ringing from the
shots. I must have jumped a foot
when the gun next to me went off.
We were about fifteen foot and
with one hundred men firing at
once it was some rackett.
Big stoop
Bill- Bud and
somebodys wash.
