“I've never been to an organized shoot like this and it was a little different,” he added. “But we've had a great time here and Cody has been so warm and receptive.”
Stube said the local Special Ops community was a great help.
“Special Ops has a huge commitment from the retired soldiers in Cody,” he said. “Army Chief of Staff Gen. Peter Schoomaker has been here and is part of the local chapter.”
Stube said the team was glad to be a part of the shoot and support the Second Amendment.
“Our duty now is to have greater community involvement,” he said. “We all support the Second Amendment.
“But it's also about preserving the culture and values that go along with gun ownership,” he added. “This is great, clean family fun.”
