On Saturday I will be back to weekend drills for the first time since 2008. On Saturday we have a welcome home party at the Farm Show Arena. On Sunday it's business as usual with an 0800 formation. For me I have to catch up on some required online training. I could do it at home, except I loaned my PC to another sergeant in Iraq and he still has it. Macs don't run Explorer so I can't do Army on-line training on my computer.
It is finally official (I think) that I am in Headquarters Company. I will be bringing my Army camera to the Farm Show Saturday night and taking pictures of soldiers who back to whatever all of us consider to be normal life.
I'll post the some of the shots on Sunday or as soon as I can.
