FM 6-14: Standard Survival Techniques for Indvidual Sized Units

Noble dead that sleep below,
We your valour ne'er forget;
Soft the heroes' rest who know
Hearts like theirs are beating yet.

11 December 2005

I'm currently sitting in the main branch of the Ft. Benning library. I've succesfully completed ground and tower week of Airborne school, and the only thing left between me and my wings is a series of jumps on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.

The last two weeks has gone by surprisingly quick. Thankfully so, because most of our training involves learning how to throw ourselves at the ground without injuring ourselves seriously.

I spent last weekend with the Arndts, which was great. Andy and I enjoyed wreaking havoc in Michael's disguised as gay lovers (a story for another day). This weekend has mainly consisted of spending way too much time on the phone and sleeping. Mainly because we aren't allowed to leave a fifty mile radius outside of post.

With luck I'll be home soon enough, and a then all of the real fun will begin.
