AD while training, brother wounded

[Purplehood]

I am absolutely aghast that someone would cover a loaded MG and then put it into a truck for transport. The only exception to that is on a turret-ring and you are expecting Charlie over the wire any second...

A quote from Phil "Thanks to all concerned,, Bruce is doing better, and again thanks to all that have donated blood in his name, The red tape involved (pun intended) in him getting credit for those donations is being worked out as we speak, (there’s more to it than you would imagine ) But regardless someone who needs it will get it and that’s not a bad thing.
He has had a few surgery’s to his left leg to remove damaged flesh and skin grafts, but will have more, and they have started therapy on that leg. At the moment no decision has been made on how to address the loss of bone in the right leg, there are several options and all are being thoroughly look at, I’m sure the rout that ensures the highest % of recovery will be the rout taken.

I hope to spend more time with Bruce tomorrow and I have spoken with his wife daily on his condition, I will tell you that these are fine people, and must be as they met on a shooting range 27 years ago., and they are both touched by the deep concern from the shooting community for his well being.

I’m in the process of putting together a fund raising raffle or fun shot of sorts to be held on the 30th of this month to benefit both Bruce’s family and the Monaville VFD who did a great job as did the responding Waller county EMS and Sheriffs Dept. There will be a AK-47 on the table as well as Certificates for training, the first will be to the next Suarez International Tactical Combat Casualty Care class (date to be announced ) the first one we held here in Feb of last year and it was a great full day of hands on training. Jeff Lipa the instructor has a lot of hands on experience and did a great job of presenting the information needed, all the students that attended left with a kit and Jeff was kind enough to leave me with much of the kit that was used to save Bruce.

Any one wishing to donate to the raffle or help on the 30th please contact me directly
Phil theimpactzone@peoplepc.com or 832-274-8549

Again Bruce his wife and I, thank all you for your prayers and support
Lets continue to work at keeping this a sport that we are all proud to be involved in"

Bill,
Did this happen at The Impactzone? Its been about 4 years since I shot there, I met a great group of people from TXDPSA. The range owner was cool too. I was a relative newcomer to guns back then, having only been in the US a year.

Keep us updated on Bruce.
