I for one am finally coming to the knowledge that 6 total ruptured disc in my spine, and nerve damage is putting me in a position where being a front line fighter is almost suicide. The question is what can I do? How can I do it? I can train people, as that is what I did for a time in the Corps, and I can still put back supplies, do gun repair, farm enough to supply a unit, or two. Mountainguerrillia has taken a look at this and how to organize this part of our table of organization to meet our needs when time comes. mountainguerrilla.wordpress.com/2012/09/28/organization-and-development-of-the-auxiliary/#comment-376Once again Mountainguerrillia hits the bulls eye.

You can join me and the other Old Farts. I intend to get me a cane and learn to walk like a pregnant elk. Then I will go sit in the local park and keep tabs on the other side, and swap messages with any who stop by. I can explain my late nights in my garage as old age while I reload. I can carry loads under my cloths as no one is looking to inspect someone who may be wearing a cathiter pouch where they may touch and smell. What works against you also works for you.

You can join me and the other Old Farts. I, too, am a plank owner of the Ancient and Loyal Order of Old Farts (A.L.O.O.F). I'm still fairly spry, can still hit what I shoot at, and my brain is still as sharp as it was half my life ago, but now I have all that time invested in experiences. I've seen auxiliary articles in other places. It's great reading and thought-making stuff.

As another Olde Farte, with the mind and desires of a young man, the knowledge that comes with experience and extended education and a body that hat said "the hell with it", I have made the comittment long ago, to ensure others are supplied with the resources that simply can not be purchased.

I got a few more miles on this old frame, then I become a "support" guy.

So long as you stay a long way from an open fire.

Yup...I joined A.L.O.O.F years ago....I've got a number of different theater ribbons to prove it...lol!
But ya know what? Yer never too old to pull a trigger for the right reason. Even if things end there, nobody lives forever. And I plan on dying with honor, whether in my own bed of old age...or otherwise.
BTW, Ed, I already know you well enough to know you believe the same.
