Subject: Field update
Ranger Invictus,

Just a quick update from the field as I have limited time for internet access. I'm currently in the infirmory because I have Mono as well as half my platoon's bay. I find out tomorrow what happens (30 day leave or staying) and will hopefully be ok.


I likely won't be able to check this board again for some time so if you can, please reply via snail mail and I'll keep writing once I receive you address.

Thanks again for all the help,

Joseph

Mono??? The Kissing disease??? :shock:

Pray tell, how does one contract such a disease in basic training?

For the record, I'm being rhetorical. I hope he's well.

Mono... :roll: The only thing worse in open bay barracks is scabies. You can't kill either one of them. If half his plt is down, they most likely won't get con lv...

I got fucking mono right after I got out of the hospital from my first shoulder surgery. Contracted it at Madigan. Which says volumes about their sanitary habits.
