Well daylight savings time messed up all of today. The DS did not wake us up till it was time to go. Which was good because we got sleep, but I missed Bible study because I could not get ready in 1 minute. So we got to move all the lockers and beds and clean behind them all. That was no fun. Tomorrow we go out on the range and actually get familar with how our weapons feel when we fire them. I don't remember if I told you, but I am still squad leader which is good and bad because now if I mess up I get wrote up for lack of leadership, even if someone in my squad messes up I get wrote up. FUN FUN! Some side effects I have been noticing black hands from pit and weapon oil this stuff does not come off. My hands are so cracked they are almost black. We are starting to weed out the soldiers that did not so certain trainings or ones that keep breaking the rules which I can't wait for. I hope I lose atleast one soldier. He is the one that does not listen and keeps breaking the rules. I have another soldier in my platoon that keeps lying and getting caught so I am sure he will be getting in trouble. I just got my phone calls, I got ahold of all 4 of my children. YEAH! I miss you kids.
