[Ads-l] heard (?) but not seen

[David Barnhart]

Yesterday I heard (I am quite sure) the term _twelve_ (meaning "forward" or
"ahead") in conjunction with "watch my six" (meaning "watch my back").  But
I can't find it in the recent news coverage of the double murder in a
shooting range.  Any references (current or otherwise) would be gratefully
received.

 

Regards,

David
