A Great Marine, A Great Man, A Great Friend
bearpaw:
Sorry to hear, great men and great friends are hard to see go.
KFhunter:
My pops was a scout sniper but I think a few years later than Rocky, he started with the 30-06 then transitioned to the .308 almost as soon as he landed in Vietnam. I always wished I could get him an M40 sniper rifle from that era with the Redfield scope.
So I doubt they knew one another. Pops grew up very similar to Hathcock, popping squirrels in rural Arkansas as a young boy, dirt poor sharecroppers with no shoes, a hard man these generations do not understand.
RIP Rocky
KFhunter:
Pops did mention (on numerous occasions) of a DI that would do a flying kick to his chest when he screwed up in basic....
maybe they did know one another :o
Russ McDonald:
