911 on 9/11 – The Target

Tuesday, September 11th, 2012

This target contains 79 hits; one for each NSW member we have lost in operations or training since 9/11/01. They were placed there by a retired SEAL firing a custom Remington 700 fitted with a Leupold optic from 911 yards. The Shooter began firing this morning at 0846:30, the same time that Flight 11 struck World Trade Center North Tower (One) in 2001. Winds began to pick up on Academi’s Range 19 so the shooter pressed through in order to finish mid-day before even higher winds came late in the afternoon.

This is just phase I. Next, the target will be sent to artist Ellwood T Risk to be turned into a unique piece of art. He is known for incorporating targets into some very amazing stuff. Make sure you take a look at his site.

The entire project, coined, “911 on 9/11” commemorates NSW’s fallen operators and support personnel by creating unique art to raise money and awareness for Warrior Wear which provides specialized clothing for wounded who require prosthesis.

Once finished this piece will be auctioned off at the upcoming Hold ’em for Heroes poker run sponsored by Wounded Wear.
