HESTER, Judge,
concurring:
I concur with the majority. Appellant entered counseled pleas of guilty to the charges of possession of marijuana, *353possession of marijuana with intent to deliver and the manufacture of marijuana. The raid on his premises produced 112 pounds of marijuana, weighing scales, marijuana plants, a tray of marijuana drying in the oven, $28,578 in United States currency and other paraphernalia associated with the manufacture and distribution of marijuana. This was no minor undertaking. The facts indicate that appellant was a major marijuana distributor.
Appellant was a graduate of a vocational technical school; he attended a community college and he was an Honorably Discharged veteran of the Military where he attained the rank of Specialist Fourth Class. He was and continues to be represented by private counsel. His plea was obviously intelligently and voluntarily entered.
Appellant received a lenient sentence in view of the serious crimes involved in his pleas. I agree that we must remand for resentencing in accordance with the Sentencing Code and guidelines, in all other respects, the appeal is patently frivolous.
