Marksmanship
as I recall there were three different badges, Marksman, Sharpshooter, and Expert. I had three bars hanging from my Expert Badge, M-14, Carbine(m-16) , and pistol (45)
45 was the hardest. and I won $5.00 from the rifle range NCO. When he told me I was just lucky. And If I could hit a 75 yard head/sholder silouet he would give me $5.00.
I did all the 8 steps that he taught us and the target went down. The guys in my platoon all clapped. He did not like that, we left the trucks at the range and double timed back to barricks.
That was sure a good looking $5.00.
What kind of Marksmanship badge did you get?
