Thank You Kansas Vigilance Committe

[Major Matt Lewis]

I would like to thank the KVC for putting on their shoot today at Powder Creek.  I had an absolute blast.  I hadn't shot a Cowboy Action Match in about 5 years because of tours in Iraq and Afghanistan.  I REALLY REALLY enjoyed the experience.  The weather was perfect and I truly enjoyed the company of John and Michelle, Mr & Mrs Tathum (Sorry Mike, I forgot your beautiful wife's name), Windy City, Colonel Diamond and Grizzle Bear.  Guys, we joked about no trophies, but I feel I got one today.  Not something you set on the mantle, but something you feel in your chest.  Thanks!

M.M., Kind Sir,
So glad you made it back safe from your tours and are enjoying life with your family stateside.
The KVC crew is the bestest and exudes the quality of the NCOWS hobby! I've never had the pleasure of attending one of the matches there but know most by name and recognition and they are all fantastic folks, especially Grizzle Bear.
You Sir, as are all others who have served when I couldn't are on my Hero List!
May God always bless you & yours.
Best regards and take care,
'Ol Gabe
NCOWS #925
P.S. Had the honor of meeting and scoring you at a GAF match at Ackley, Iowa many years ago along with Drydock and many others.

Richard, I want to add my "welcome home" and gratitude for your service. We didn't get that during my war but it is wonderful to see today's returning Vets getting it.

Thanks again Brother.

I'm going to clean the basement tomorrow.  That means that I might just find my long lost reloading bench    You could say I am cleaning the basement just so I can find my reloading bench
