Dead Eye

Every morning just before sunup, he would take his rifle and walk to the wooded ridge behind his house. He had been hunting that crow for a long time. When he got on the school bus, I always asked "did you get it?" One morning he got on the bus and gave me a big smile. His abilities and peripheral vision put him on the front lines in Vietnam. You were good James Burnett, real good.
