The Pain has begun

I'd not really intended to post anything tonight, but I actually got ahead on some of my assignments yesterday. PT (Physical Training) is finally kicking off full spead ahead. This morning's festivities kicked of at 0515. At least, I think it was 515. All times before 6 am are basically the same to me at this point. Today's PT focused on building strength. We did a massive variety of pushups and situps. This is after a brief PT session last night.

Tonight, I'm exhausted. Tomorrow is a march with body armor in our rucksack. I have heard that we will do the obstacle course (confidence course, team-buildling course, or whatever it is called) once we arrive wherever the destination. I don't know and this may very well be incorrect. One of the funny things I'm learning about the military is the vast number of rumors that float around. This division will be deployed. This person did get promoted because of something. Its really kind of funny.

What I do know is that on Wednesday we will get tear gassed. I'll try to make sure I have some disgusting pictures of the results.
