My Grandson who is a Marine Stationed in Japan

He likes to Trapshoot, but says they cannot shoot Trap on American Bases in Japan. They are not allowed to have or own Shotguns while in Japan. Even the Japanese Police do not carry guns, but do carry Batons. Their local Police precincts have weapons available when needed. During his enlistment he has been in Alaska where they shoot Trap on Base, and in Hawaai he has shot trap on base

Military Base Security are armed, and there are multiple arsenals available when the need arises.

He his wife and child arrived in the US on MATS flight which are free when space is available, sole transportation is on Noisy Transport Planes which have seating and benches and they furnish Blankets and pillows and they Lay on the floor. Some military guys have brought Hammocks which they hang up for sleeping. He showed me pictures of them in use on his plane.

Food is also provided in Brown Paper bags to eat, nothing extravagant.

I just got to meet his wife again after their wedding at my sons house, and my First Great Grand child Vance whom is 2 years old, he was very sleepy due to Time Lag. They got to sightsee while in Hawaii but it was night time, He did get to rent a car for approx. 6 hours during layover and Savor their Night Time before flight left at 3:00am to California, and the 5 hour flight to Rickenbacher Air Base in Columbus.

How many other members here have military Trapshooters w/similar experiences.

My son will be taking him Trapshooting this weekend. Shooting Sporting Clays at Sunbury Conservation Club.

 

Dr. Longshot I would like to take this opportunity to thank your grandson for his service. Without the sacrifice of men and women like him, and their families, I would not be able to do what I love everyday! If he could make it to the CC Sunday, I would be honored to pay for his targets.

 

Jake: Thank you I appreciate and thank you for the great Honor of Supporting our Military, I passed Your message to my Son and see if they can make it

With My Special Thanks, Thank You

My grandson and Family could not get a MATS Flight out of Ohio so had to fly on Commercial Airline to California to get to flights to Hawaai and Japan
