Doe gone !!!!

Yes you
I'm having trouble following this conversation. I'm pretty sure that Carlos Hathcock, the famous Vietnam Marine sniper has been dead for almost 25 years.yes you are correct, but Carlos Hathcock at white feather ammunition camp lejeune, Carlos Hathcock had a Marine dedication ceremony, that's when he awarded both Niel, and can't remember the other Master Gunnery Sergeants name, but anyway Niel Retired in 2001, so with the years that he served the Marine Corp this happened with Carlos Hathcock,
 
Niel also made the longest shot in the gulf war, 1057yds, with a 308, shot a Iraqi lieutenant in the neck, sure it was supposed to be a head shot, and to correct myself I'm not exactly sure what his retirement year was,I will ask him tomorrow,on the telephone,

Ok to bring you up to speed on Niel, White feather Ammunition camp lejeune, dedication ceremony that Hathcock awarded Niel was in 1995, Hathcock died in 1999, Niel Retired, like I originally thought in May of 2001, I do understand the big ???? marks,this subject and talking about this kind of stuff people think it might be made up, not this time, anyway just to let you know, I just finished texting with him,
 
Ok also, his divorced wife Dr Elizabeth, was a sniper for the Houston s.w.a.t team the time they were married, when Robbie, Niels younger brother died of pulmonary fibrosis,the time he spent in Lynchburg hospital, Virginia, I would leave work in Hilton Head, SC every Friday a half day at work and ride my Harley ( Ulta classic Electra glide) to Virginia and stay with Robbie all weekend, a very sad year for me, that's when I met Niels wife Elizabeth
