That is fantastic skeets and give them my congratulations! You must be very proud.

Now to answer the question. A gunny is a small pistol AKA a derringer.

Seriously:

Skeets, Thank him for his service from me. It takes a lot of dedication to serve in our Armed Forces under the current president. Also, congratulations on his successes.
