Last Training Day at FT. Jackson

Today was our last training day here at FT. Jackson. All and all, it was interesting. In the morning, we did a land navigation course. Of course, the majority of the folks in my class are pilots and navigators, so navigating through a 400m course wasn’t so hard. This afternoon, we did a mock convoy where we were exposed to some of the threats we could expect in Iraq. It was interesting and the instructors did a good job on the simulation. Tomorrow, is an administrative day and Saturday being a day off. If they have any rooms available, I may get a room at the Bachelor Officer’s Quarter’s—just to get out of my open bay barracks. A lot of the guys are going to get a last good meal in town before we leave. I think I will stay behind. Good company makes for a great meal, and the only dinner guest I would like to spend an evening with is in Pensacola.
