If you are going to do any riding in the winter (and I had to ride all winter last year to get to work..) get yourself one of the electric vests to keep you warm. Make sure that your neck gaiter or balaclava will keep the wind out of the helmet..(I had to double up with a fleece bala and regular nec...

Congrats! If you make it for 2 years take a look back at the faces you showed up with. About half of those that make it don't last 6 months. 2 years and you are a Old Timer. (4 makes you a really fuckin old guy!..) Until you go to a unit where people are assigned there, you don't see the difference ...

Good luck. It is possible to do a tour in Batt. and stay true to your beliefs. I remember we had a team leader who was very religeous but you wouldn't know by talking to him.

Shipping today

Medic1024 is shipping today to Benning School for Wayward Children. After that, it's off to Ft. Sham, then back to Georgia to learn how not to hit the ground at a high rate of speed, followed by 3 weeks of relaxing by the Regimental Pool and playing Golf! :twisted:

-Mika Don't fuckin' worry about being a RIP holdover for that long. If you are, it will be a perfect opportunity to correct any PT deficiencies you might have.
