Walknmannv - I absolutely love your 'war stories'. That is so familiar - "Yesterday I couldn't spell instuctor, and today I are one"! Yep, know the feeling ... but in your case you got exposed to something that has served you well.
Those ol' 1911's are so much fun to shoot. I got ot put a few rounds through some of them too, on the company and battalion pistol teams. The pistols would make noise like a rattle if you shook 'em good, side to side, but they'd lay 'em down range fairly accurately.
