Even to be allowed to participate in a hunt would be an honor.<br /><br />The system to be properly certified in Germany is more involved than what we do in the US.

St. Hubert is also the Patron of archers, trappers, fur hunters, mathematics, blacksmiths and dog trainers</i> [but he would have absolutely nothing to do with crossbows, fish nets, faux fur manufacturers, anthropology, wainwrights, and cat lovers -WB]<i>.<br /><br /> In 1938, after Austria was absorbed </i>[is that what they're calling invasion now? -WB] <i>by the German Reich, Herman Göring demanded membership on the Order and executed the Grand Prior when he was denied</i> [some people REALLY love their hunting and fishing -WB]<i>. At the end of the World War surviving members of the Order</i> [who obviously hadn't lived in Germany -WB]<i>, were authorized by Halvor O. Ekern, chief political advisor of the US Armed Forces in Austria </i>[and from whom mighty oaks grow -WB]<i> to use their sporting guns to provide winter food to the rural population</i> [Deer for Downtrodden -WB]<i>, avoiding not only famine but helping to save the country from falling behind the Iron Curtain</i> [and from being overrun by wildlife run amok due to underhunting -WB]<i>.</i>"<br /><br />And so on.<br /><br />Res Ipsa, this is an organization that seems right up your alley.WaterBoynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22583491.post-32708563927866023462016-02-25T12:33:36.675-07:002016-02-25T12:33:36.675-07:00McConnell will cave
