86. Marksman Ribbon

It figures doesn’t it? The guy with the googly eyes has his marksmanship ribbon on in the wrong position! Of course from his position it must look awfully good. I don’t know what the qualifying score is anymore, but back in the day we had to shoot at least a 54 out of 60 to qualify to wear it the ribbon. That was using an M-16. Prior to going overseas we also had to qualify with a .38 revolver! I don’t remember what that qual score was however … too many years.

Anyway, hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!

  1. Just found you and really enjoying your work.

    In 1979 (!) I qualified for the marksmanship ribbon at Lackland shooting the M-16.22 so I was an Air Force Trained Marksman ™ using a 22 caliber rimfire rifle LOL
