I know they are, I was squaded with her during our sectionals, that's the reason I made no mention of what really happened. I also know Jesse personally and what she went through was rough also. But our community sticks together for a reason. They way Glock handled it was the reason Dave and Randi both punched out...

I have shot with or ROd for them many times over the last few years, and this has been (obviously) a very painful time for them. They are good, decent people, and could use a little bit of a break.

IIRC her ex husband was a coach, he cheated on Jessie with an underage girl, who was also on the same team at the time.

This guy told it like it was gospel and he seemed lucid. He claimed that Gunny was dropped for some improper behavior. It sounds like he may have the story wrong. It just makes me wonder why he was passing with information as if it was fact.

Spent nine years in the Marines.

Never heard the story.

Now, the story of the Marine bouncing a ball until his section 8 cam thru, I heard that one. My buddy was in his unit...oh, and the CG's wife that got blown up by a motar round? Heard that one too, my buddy's room mate was stationed with the guy who sent the round down range..oh, and I know the guy who drove his camaro into the side of the mountain with a JATO bottle.
