Today my unit hosted a spouse day with all the fun. Our spouses fired two different weapons systems and threw training hand grenades. There was also a static display of some equipment and food for all to have.

In 1992, we allowed the wives to shoot the 25mm on our Bradley after table VIII quals were completed. I think it was more fun to be a dependent back in the day.

I'd love to see my wife fire off the Mk19.

It is funny you say that SGT Flickinger because they had one on the range but only to show and the M2 as well.

I never had a unit do that, but since my wife loves to go to the range and shoot with me, I'm pretty sure she'd love it.

Seriously, 1SG (Join to see) , kudos to you if you came up with this...and if you didn't, kudos anyway for pulling it off. This really sounds like a great thing for family "team building"

Oh I can not take any credit for the day. I had six spouses that attended and 17 soldiers who supported the event. The command deserves all the credit they kept this day on the calendar when they could have just let it fall off.
