Week of Classroom...Running In The Woods Soon


Dear Friends,

This last week I spent the entire time looking at PowerPoint slides. It was long & tedious yet needed. We were learning the details of Operation Orders (the way we present all the information for a mission). The classes were very in depth, and I still have a lot to learn about it. Anyway, this week we'll be having some more classes, we'll be doing Land Navigation, and we'll also get to go to the Infantry Museum on Friday. Yup, I get paid to go to a museum...one more reason I love the Army. It's supposed to be pretty sweet.

My time as Squad Leader is over too, but I am expecting another leadership position in the next month or so when we start to run missions in the field. Until then I get to be just a regular guy. Also, I'm gonna list the people in my squad so you can be praying for them. I still don't know them very well, but I do know that Hill, Fox, and Hamilton are Christians. It should be nice to have them around when things get a little more stressful. I'll write again soon!

My Squad: Edward Fox, Shaun Futch, David Hamilton, Stephen Hill, Matt Iglesias, Afif Karout, Dennis Kester, Curtis Knie, Michael Kolton, & Pavlos Tzouganatos.
