Hard to imagine the sensation of touching that off whilst lying behind it in a little flatboat on a bay under a full moon, looking down the barrel at thousands of divers just lifting off the surface. Incredible.

Reminds me of a great story, about a punt gunner on the Outer Banks, that ran in a Sporting Clays magazine many, many years ago. I wish I could find and reread it.

Thanks, SRH

May God bless America and those who defend her.
