Forgive me for patting myself on the back today. But earlier this week I looked back at all the previous posts and events on this blog for the past 730 days. I proudly soaked in a list of TTG accomplishments. There are also some things that we've seen develop and grow in which we had no involvement whatsoever...but are still worth mentioning. For those of you who have followed us since the beginning, you'll remember most of these. Thanks for letting me take a moment here...

Congrats! I wasn't in from the start, but enjoy the info. I came in for the Prison WO #2 and am close to ending PWO #3 in the next few weeks.
I look forward to seeing Lou again at a SWAT Competition or another event.
