An Army Sergeant First Class now diisabled and retired

Guess I'm not too creative, I just used my name--Justin Cider. I thought about using "Who farted?" since that is the most common phrase that typically comes out of my wife's mouth, but thought that might be a little inappropriate to some.

I was air launched weapons officer on USS RANGER CV-61 back about 1980.

okay I'll give you two guesses and the first one don't count.&I 'm SSGOldfart to some,yep just about old as the hills but I'm retired now

After I got out of college I drifted away from hunting and shooting for a number of years. After several local moves and then a move cross country I got reinterested in hunting again but the only two guns I had with me (everything else was stored at my folks house) was a 38 revolver and a bubba'd Winchester 1917 that my great Uncle worked over back in the 30's. It's the ugliest gun ever but I'll never forget how excited I was when my grandpa hauled it out of his closet and gave it to me.

The first caliber I ever had for hunting in my contender, first time out, less than an hour into the hunt, I dropped a 6x7 Elk at 185 yards in his hoof prints. my hunting pard's first words were 375, man.

Ben English was my maternal grandmothers paramour. He was a great guy and the only joy in her life besides her kids (who turned out to be a real mixed bag). We actually buried him in the family plot.

I think if he were still on earth, he'd get a kick out of me throwing his name around in all sorts of places.

Mine is also my SASS alias.
And I have been restoring Mustangs, Cyclones, Fairlanes since I was in HS.
