Army Training, SIR!!!
 

Hello Planet, Greetings from Sunny Ft. Hunter Leggitt in Jolon CA. I'm here for three weeks, right now anyway (more on that to follow) and the first week is down.

So far we've not done anything here, we couldn't have done at home, in St. Louis. Class room stuff. We are on an alcohol ban, so I'm in serious withdrawls right now, HA But funny story the first day we were getting settled in and my buddy Rob was next to me in the barracks and the desk between us had two bottles of jack, one bottle of crown (all almost empty) a half bottle of Black Velvet and a full bottle of captain's.

Needless to say we let our bosses know about it (honor, integrity, blah blah blah...) and had to throw it all out. But two of the biggest drinkers having liquer in their desk is beyond hysterical (to me anyway). If we would have found it a day or two later no one would believe we had found it.

I'll attach a couple pictures, of the sights, the barracks, the big out of control forest fire that is bearing down on us. It's a blast! [/sarcasm]

On the bright side we do have a swimming pool, I'll attach a pic of that too. The army really knows how to take care of us!!! Thank you Tax payers!!!!

Are you the PLO?

Are you going to Iraq?

Coffey, it's been a while. what have you gotten yourself into this time?

Are you in the reserves? or did you enlist?

What the hell are you doing on an Army base? Get your happy ass back to civilian life before they decide to ship you someplace really warm and sunny.

You're in a building WITH internet? WTF? Someone messed up! You should be in a tent!!!





;)

I re-upped in Nov. (after 8 years of being out) I'm in the Reserves. I had a real possibility of going over in Aug. Up till a few weeks ago I thought it was a sure thing. I just didn't tell alot of people.

The unit I'm with got back almost a year ago, so as long as they don't threaten me with going over on a different companies roster, I'm good till early - mid next year.

LOL

We've been tasked to do OPFOR for the poor saps in the tents....

Hey! I don't want one of my favorite posters to get shipped to Iraq as my wedding gift. Not for my birthday either. Prolong it as long as possible! :cuss:

I'm having problems downloading pics, I haven't tried since the conversion is there something I should do?

Did it come with pie

The desk in question, and our lovely swimming pool - "last one in is a rotten egg!"

:cuss:

And that's neither me, or "Rob" in the photo

So, two days ago we hear a forest fire started out in the woods several miles away from us, no problem. We can see the smoke but are confident in our leaders that "all is well"



:doh!:
