Annual Training begins for me the end of this week. I will try to write every day about what I am doing--whatever that turns out to be.
Since we keep all our gear in the armory, packing is not such a big deal. Most of my packing is bike stuff so I can ride at the end of the duty day--when the day's training ends before dark.
More later.
Veteran of four wars, four enlistments, four branches: Air Force, Army, Army Reserve, Army National Guard. I am both an AF (Air Force) veteran and as Veteran AF (As Fuck)
