The House Concurrent Resolution congratulates Brody Allen of Reading for his significant achievement in completing the NRA Marksmanship Qualification Program and earning the Distinguished Smallbore Rifleman Award. The resolution highlights the rigorous training sessions conducted by the Precision Valley Fish and Game Association (PVFGA) in Perkinsville, which take place annually from December to April. Participants in this program can earn various levels of marksmanship proficiency, culminating in the prestigious Distinguished Expert designation, which requires a high level of skill and accuracy in shooting.
Brody Allen began his journey in the NRA program in 2018 and, at just 17 years old, achieved the Distinguished Expert designation on April 4, 2026, during a PVFGA meeting. The resolution not only recognizes his dedication and accomplishment but also directs the Secretary of State to send a copy of the resolution to Brody Allen and the PVFGA, celebrating his success in this challenging marksmanship program.
