Rifle Qualification Wrap Up

Lisa didn't seem to take much consolation in the fact she scored Expert on her second qualification. The Marines rules say that when failing the first time you are only eligible to wear the lowest rank badge which is Marksman until you qualify again in another year. But I was proud of her for coming back and posting a score at the highest qualification level even though she can't wear the badge, at least for this year.

And unknown to almost everyone, she did come back strong under a lot of pressure. You see, if she had not qualified this time she would not have been able to take her leave in July to visit family and be a bridesmaid in her friends wedding.
