Mr. Ely. Am I correct in stating that when he fired the "A" course he would have been still in basic training at San Diego?
Colonel Folsom. Yes.
Mr. Ely. This was on the 21st of December 1958. Did you mention what the minimum score for sharpshooter would have been at that point?
Colonel Folsom. It would have been 210.
Mr. Ely. In other words, he was two points over the minimum for sharpshooter and the designation "MM" on his record was an error?
Colonel Folsom. That is correct.
Mr. Ely. Am I correct in stating that the "B" course firing to which you referred occurred on May 6, 1959, at El Toro, Calif.?
Colonel Folsom. This is correct.
Mr. Ely. His record also discloses that he fired a riot gun, a .45 caliber pistol, and at some times an M-1 rifle on a course designated "FAM." That stands for familiarization?
Colonel Folsom. That is correct.
