Retired Master Gunnery Sgt. from the US Marine Corps where he served from 1948/1981.
(Personal Note) I served in Vietnam (1966/1967) with then "Gunny Scheer" and he was our Gunnery Sgt. and the Senior NCOIC of our unit. A taskmaster if there was ever was one, but a Marine through and through. God Bless "Master Guns" you will never be forgotten. Oh, by the way St. Peter, you now have a Senior Master Sgt. to get those Marines squared away who guard the gates of heaven. Semper Fi.
