Okay, in contradiction with my earlier post: Jeff Garvas and Jim Irvine mud wrestling.
Seriously? You come up with that?
I said I wanted attendance up, not down. So I say TacTissy and FateOfDestinee in a shooting competition that involves crawling through mud and ends with hand to hand combat.
I am not a lawyer. My answers are based on research, knowledge, and are generally backed up with facts, the Ohio Revised Code, or the United States Code.

That was a 6-on-1 situation...so we'd have to add Emily Miller, Julie Golub, Katie Pavlich and Tori Nonaka.
Among the many awards and recognitions Det. Jared Reston received for his heroic actions that day: The State of Florida Law Enforcement Officer of the Year; the National Police Hall of Fame and Museum National Officer of the Year; and Jacksonville Sheriff's Office Officer of the Year. He continues to serve Jacksonville County.
He was also awarded the President of the United States “Medal of Valor” and the Fraternal Order of Police’s "Florida Police Officer of the Year."
Here's a 10-minute video that I promise you is worth watching for the mindset education alone. This guy just said "no, I'm not dying here," and fought through that [expletive].
How about Msgt. Kyle Lamb?
I attended a seminar of his titled:" How to not just SURVIVE, but THRIVE in a gunfight." At the NRA Annual Meeting in Nashvill, TN in 2015.
It was free, but I would have paid $40 gladly if I had to.
