National Rifle Association TrainingOn June 11 & 18th, Squadron 10 conducted National Rifle Asso-

ciation training. The course was held at the Eastport Police Firing

Facility and was given by two Certified Firearms instructors with the

assistance of Senior Members. Maj. Jack Ozer and 1LT. Barry Fell

instructed the Cadets in the two phase course. Phase one con-

sisted of basic Firearm Safety and Basic Rifle Marksmanship.

Phase two was live firing on the range with scoring for the NRA

Light Rifle Qualification. Sixteen cadets and a one senior qualified

with scores ranging from basic practical to the expert marksman

category. After the live firing session 1 LT Larry Buschell gave

the cadets a demonstration on the care and cleaning of the rifles

that they had just used. This exercise demonstrated the safety

measures to be observed when using firearms and stressed the

necessity of safe firearm management.
