I Tell You About The Military

Ey, remember me? So far so good, peeps. I graduated from basic combat training on Friday, and I'm moving to do more training tomorrow. :banana:

No lucid dreams though. The stress of training must be killing my ability. My recall sucks aswell. I need to get on top of my LDing again.

Anyway, its been fun as hell. Especially shooting 50 cal. machine guns and blowing up shit with grenades.

I'll catch up with you guys like Dec. 19 or something like that. They are going to let me go home for 2 weeks for Christmas.

Keep it real DV people. I havent forgot about you yet.

I know someone's got to do it and everything, but wait until the shit is your fellow human beings, and they shoot back. :(

Half/Dreaming, welcome back. I'm glad everything is going well for you. Every time you shoot something, think about how much more fun it would be if it were a member of Al Qaeda who is plotting to kill thousands of Americans at once.

Congrats on graduating from basic! My cousin graduated from basic a couple weeks ago too. I'm not sure how often you hear this, but thank you for what you are doing for your country. And thanks for checking in with us! :D

My brother just returned from Iraq yesterday, so I also feel qualified to say thank you. Stay safe (but have fun.)

Whoa, good to hear from you, Half/, and glad to hear everything's going well.

Just don't get stuck sponge-bathing tanks all day, like a friend of mine did.

Hey, checkin in again. Drill Sergeants allowed us shopping time at the PX (military Wall-Mart), and there's computers here. I may get smoked.....i dont really know yet.

This AIT (advanced individual training) is harder than basic for gods sake. But we do cooler shit, like drive tanks (Bradleys) and use c4.

And, we're going home in 10 days for "Christmas Exodus". BUT, the catch is we can't smoke or drink or drive cars...atleast they say we can't.

catch us with you later. like 10 days or so
