Sorry guys, that was supposed to say '03-'09
In 2003 I transfered to SSDF (shipboard security defence force) wile aboard the Reagan, at that time it was still in the yard in va. so i got alot of range time wile she was getting ready for sea trials. after seeing me shoot, the G-2 chief invited me to shoot with the ships shooting team up at the army base in williamsburg. was shooting with the G-2 guys weekly untill i took a billit in Al Jahara, kuwait. wile in the gulf i got interested in special forces so in 2006 i put in for a departmental transfer to SW-6(our dept. EOD div.) as an ordinance stacker (i was an AO3 at this point in time so it was fitting)when the gun boss found out about my shooting he made me sharpshooter for ground det. when i wasnt shooting i was learning and doing what i could to go EOD, to make a long story short, i whent to San D. for training finished about 3/4 of it and hurt my kneei kept my expert rifle and expert pistol quals up throughout the rest of my time in service. i still shoot but not as often as i would like. now i live at the beach, im getting a degree, and have 2 children
