For more than a century now, a program that was established by Theodore Roosevelt's presidential administration has promoted the development of marksmanship skills for civilians. This presentation from Martin K.A. Morgan discusses the history of the DCM/CMP, and describes the ways that the program continues to fulfill its mission in the 21st century. Learn more about the Civilian Marksmanship Program when you attend the American Rifleman Special Presentation, "Inside the Civilian Marksmanship Program," at the NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits in Dallas, Sunday, May 6, 2018, (11 a.m. to 1 p.m., Room C141, 143 and 149). Regular session attendees know the seats fill up fast, often rendering the event Standing Room Only. In other words, get there early!
