Joe-nobody here ever really knows or understands who you are or what your postings mean-But as our Host, Mr. Weber, as do I, believes in the First Amendment (as well as the Second) you can say whatever you want. Captain Paul A. Curtis was about same age as his friend Nash Buckingham, was an Army Ordnance Officer in WW1- rank of Captain when he left the Army Honorably-a noted gun authority who was invited to shoot with European Royalty and American "Upper Crusters" too, he was gunning editor for Field and Stream- he wrote "Guns and Gunning" in 1934-died of natural causes I believe in 1946.
