That's pretty impressive. I consider myself a pretty good shot. I've been shooting guns my whole life. Still, I only got marksman my first try. I got expert the second time though.

I shot expert in boot, and then again with a pistol. Pistol is much more difficult IMO.

When he's talking to other Marines, it is implied his son's service is appreciated. But he's not in the fleet yet. He's still being trained. Relax there shawny.

In order to pick up PFC he would need to become a guide or squad leader if he didn't do the things necessary to get contract PFC prior to going to boot camp

I'm thinking you dont want an answer to this question so much as you want to brag about your boy. You know what? Kudos. You should be proud.

Capitalize "Marines" in your title! I'm sure your son will teach you that. 315 is his total from Table 1 (250 pts. from known distance) and Table 2 (100 pts. from field firing.) It's not incredibly difficult. I would estimate that more than 25% of recruits initially qualify as experts due to the high level of coaching and instruction they receive during grass week and qual week. Re-quals in the fleet should prove to be more difficult. Was he at Stone Bay or Edson Range
My uncle was in the marines
