  1. Learned how to handle myself if my vehicle rolls over today, weapons issued and a general awesome day. Hoorah!
  2. Spending a year in Afghanistan becomes more real and mire daunting the further down the training cycle I go. Crap, won't be easy.
  3. Full disclosure: I'm 5'10" and weigh 150. 150+ pounds of gear.
  4. Gear issued. I now have gear that weighs as much as I do.
  5. @NavySquid No Sir, I'm active. Sent TAD at the end of my Sea tour... 5 years shore duty after my one year in AFG
  6. Ha! I am still pretty good at marching. Always turned left when told left-face.
  7. Only real complaint in the barracks--this will make some laugh--not enough outlets for all the laptops and cellphones. The WiFi is great.
  8. RT @batess: The US needs comprehensive overhaul of gerrymandered Congressional districts, the root cause nation's p (cont) http://tl.gd/sg3k
  9. And so yes, the time has cone for this Sailor to drink to the foam. His last night of drinking for the year... Salute!
  10. @jaxio no, I'm TAD to the Army. Navy sends guys to augment the forces on land, I'll be in Afghanistan for a year.
  11. @jaxio I'm good. Wearing an Army uniform and on an Army base... Trying to make sense of it all. Good times though!
  12. @NavySquid by all means Sir, I'd love to stay in touch.
  13. @NavySquid Sir, NMPS SAN DIEGO is squared away. Special shout out to CS2 there, nothing but professional. Made transition very easy.
  14. Settled into Ft Jackson. Combat training starts this coming week. Thinking about buying a shirt that says "NARMY STRONG".
  15. @NavySquid Bagram.
  16. Wheels up from San Diego early tomorrow to Ft. Jackson. Really impressed with NMPS staff out here, very squared away.
  17. Maritime Multilateralism: China's Strategy for the Indian Ocean. http://tr.im/Eb5E (via @deremilitari)
  18. Sorry for the hiatus.. Been in training. Now in San Diego. SC next week AFG end of the month.
  19. @CMDCMHay Master Chief, I have a few things left, mostly dental. I'll be good to go this time next week!
  20. Is the USNA violating the Constitution in it's admissions? http://bit.ly/2SxaZ
