Yay! So apparently Veterans Day is a much bigger deal in the Army than it is for civilians, so we're getting a 4 day weekend coming up. I'll get to go to Kentucky! At least one day I have to climb, Sat or Sunday, I reckon, so if you're around Greg, Chris, Kyle, Katie, Scott, Sarah, Dana, Aaron, and any and everyone else who would be interested in climbing then, I wouldn't mind belaying you at all, as long as you put a top rope up on C Sharp B Flat for me. Though I hear that Mr. Bungles is a world class climb, maybe we should do that? Actually, though, I wouldn't mind getting destroyed on Twinkie, Greg, as long as you can get the gear back down :)

First day of Airborne School down. It's amusing anyway. Mad amounts of running, in combat boots and fatigues, so that's rather unpleasant, but bearable. New phone, # is (706)662-1836. I think. so call me if you want, on weekends or evenings. Probably wouldn't be good if I start ringing in the middle of formation. The Blackhats sort of frown on that. and PM me your #s, 'cuz I don't have anyones anymore. Well, I'm outta here. We get to sleep late tomorrow, don't have formation until 0515, and I'm going to capitalize on the rest. Ciao

Yeah, V-Day is no big deal for civilians, unless you work in a bank or something...or is that Columbus Day??
I can't help but think where I work, they should give veterens V-Day off...they don't think so.
Any way, thanks for serving our country!
I have some stories about the Black Hats myself.
Jan. of '82. Little sleep, spit shined boots (boot black), Columbus bars, shin splints, no time to chew just eat and keep moving...

Enjoy your time at the Red, you deserve it!!

And keep looking towards jump week!
