"My" M1 Garand I named Luke.
Luke was a real buddy and never failed me.
Unfortunately, I had to let my Uncle Sam have it back when I came back to the ZI.
I would suggest that you print out the reply from fastbolt and keep it with your course book. He has hit the X ring with this response. In fact, I think all Instructors should also print it out.
