A neophyte shottist's exploration and exercise.... Read by dozens daily
I had trouble embedding this, too.It's not a New England accent. Between WWI and WWII, there was a push to "standardize" the American accent, along the lines of what the BBC did with the English accents. This is that accent. You can hear it in a lot of the films from the 1930s, and from Newsreels.But this is an awesome training film. I thought the bit on windage was particularly good.
Good video and it works today :-)
Good video. I think I'll make this required viewing for friends before their first CMP match.
I reserve the right to delete patently offensive comments. Or, really, any comment I feel like. Or I might leave a really juicy comment up for private ridicule. Also spammers. You can always offend hippies in the comment section. Chances are, those will be held up as a proper example...
