I don't want to climb on a soap box, but for me, with all the problems with gun violence in the past year or two, we don't need this type of photo in mass media.
1. Never point your weapon at anything you're not willing to shoot.(weapons should be pointed at the ground)
I think a harmless picture would have been of one or two of them lined up on a range with ear protection on in the firing position. Instead they look like a gang of thugs.
Yes. He served from 1969-1974. He apparently retired from service having attained the rank of Captain. Part of that time was spent coaching but he still served in South Korea in that span, as well.
Did he go to 'nam?
Preach it Broheim!Seriously people, let's try not to be too hypocritical here.
There was another picture posted on the Twitter of one of our players this year holding a gun just like the Duke players, too, but I can't seem to find it. They are at West Point, where K went to school, and what they're doing in that picture is really nothing different AT ALL than what our football players have done the last couple years at Fort Drum. You know that a bunch more pictures of our football guys posing with guns are out there, but no one cares because Duke basketball is higher profile than Syracuse football.
Let's stop trying to make something out of nothing and acting like this is so beneath us in any way.
good find...like I said this really is harmless, but to others...
Yes some get excited.
Jeff, you don't see the diff context in the imagery of those shots?Seriously people, let's try not to be too hypocritical here.

Again, there were other pictures taken of our football team...I remember specifically one picture this fall of one of our players posing very, very similarly to these guys with a machine gun, but I cannot for the life of me find it.
Ok assuming there are (and I don't doubt it) it just seems like a poor idea...the training stuff...completely legit
