So I havent posted in a few days... We are going to classes (and trying hard not to fall asleep...) and we do PT every morning. There are some very interesting traditions, and most are fun. Wednesdays all the officers in the Transportation Corps (that are on base) go to this bar and have a drink after work. We are also going to put on a dining in, which is a really neat military formal dinner. The dining in has a grog bowl, and everyone drinks grog...there is even a tradition for the composition of the grog, but to put it simply it is nearly half Bacardi 151 and Everclear. Evidently Everclear isnt illegal in VA!!! We are also hearing every day how the war in Iraq is going, how we will be deployed there, and how soldiers are dying and getting injured all the time. It is kind of scary, but I can't imagine not being scared when faced with this kind of a war. Not sure what I posted, but I'll put up some pictures from the Transportation Museum that I took last weekend, to include a Vietnam era Gun Truck (which are once again coming into common use).
