Raider, not meaning any ill feelings here, but I ran patrols/ambushes, as well as many many other missions on the DMZ in korea, for 3 years and let me tell you melvin never did anything but sit way back in the rear and pull his pud.One trip around dolphin head woulda killed him(I know dolphin head doesn't mean anything to ya but anyway).After trip through panama, somalia,saudi,iraq,kuwait,nicaragua,honduras, as well as korea, and the balkans I assure you that melvin has NEVER done a thing even remotely combat like.
I started my career in the infantry, and by god I take pride in a dat or cdat callin me a crunchy, but I will coldcock anyone callin me a leg.ANY 11 series, right out of boot camps been through more <font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font> than melvin ever dreamed of bein in.One run through an infiltration course would have him with a set of bdu's full of piss and <font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font>.
Melvins claims of being the bad ass criminal is just hooplah, he's little more than a perv that got coaught doing stupid crap.I will admit he's done some shooting(mainly his own feet but thats another story).His rep among the old timers in ipsc is crap, even know of a couple guys who just laughed at the mere mention he ever achieved anything near the speeds he claims.Anyway I know what you meant Rika, just trying to clear up a thing or two.
One thing melvin has achieved is a rep for being an inbred piece of dog<font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font>, but maybe I'm wrong, it coulda been cow<font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font><font color=red>*</font>.
