Prof242 got drilled in Iraq...

In case you have been wondering where he's been lately. Got a major chest wound some time back in the Sandbox.
When you say you have a large piece of mesh in your chest that the chest muscles are growing around, that is serious business. He says he is healing okay, but I would think our prayers are still in order.

My thoughts and prayers and thanks for your service, Prof! Wishing you a complete and quick recovery.

On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

RIP

Brother Max, aka prof242, and I are the only two surviving human members of the .395-Caliber Family in the whole wide world.
His wound is serious.
His wound is honorable.
The .395-Caliber Family has been neither serious nor honorable,
until now.
Brother Max brings gravitas to the .395.
God bless you Max, and get well soon.

A question and a thought.

Can we send cards to the Prof? If so where?

I suggest that a new cartridge be added to the B&M line, the "395 B&M Prof".

I know that the Prof is already associated with the 395 Max, based on the Rudger case, however the world is big enough for another 395!

Bullets already exist in the GSC line.

Perhaps, bullets can be developed in the NF and other lines.

he is checking in here from time to time. The typing is difficult I would imagine, as is sitting up.
He knows y'all are posting.

God Bless him.

On their way up.

if you can't give direct support to Prof242, try these different organizations that give support both individually and overall. A twenty or better goes a long way-
