CQ Hero

woke up at 0515 today...did a Ranger PT test...fun fun...that includes pushups/situps/5mile run/pullups/rope climb....we didnt do the rope climb..thank God...I cant climb a rope to save my freakin life...

anyways...after I reported back to work at 0930 I was informed that I had CQ...sweet...on a thursday thats the best day to have it. That means I have off friday. All went chill...Dad came up and he and I went to the chinese buffet place thats by our wal-mart..I really wanted to take himtothe Texas-Roadhouse...but we couldn't go that far from Helm's Deep soooooo we stayed close.

but anyways...its currently about 0400..got to sleep from about midnight-0300 so I got a good nap...watched a movie before midnight and chatted it up w/ the GF on AIM...so that was good

got a new AIM SN: Lead Hail

but yeah...I wasn't sure if I was going to go home or stay up here and fish with dad since he's in Pulaski for the weekend...it was going to be weather dependant..but he was too excited about it all when he picked me up, so poor weather or not I'm ganna stay up here and spend some much needed time with him..whenever I've been home I've spent all my time with Samantha and my buddies...which isn't bad by any means..just I've been putting Dad to the side.

soooo...here I am...0401...get back to this later

Helm's Deep

So my buddy Andy recently described Fort Drum as "Helm's Deep"...I like it..haha.

1.how do I get more people to follow this? because thus far..only I am...guess I gotta look into that

2. Just got back from the SDM range (squad designated marksmen) basically people that carry m14's and think thay're snipers.. welll..they cant shoot...it took 6 hours to zero their rifles at 100m. I'm expected to have my weapon zero'd within like 10 rounds...Christ. On top of all this is was terrential downpour and winds..fun fun. We were there yesturday and stayed the night to today...today it rained slightly but was still quite cold and windy.


anyways...just got back and still need a shower..hopefully some grub with a few of my boys later
