Joint Task Force Katrina is winding down (The military operations in New Orleans). I should be leaving for Bragg sometime around the 27th of this month. I am about ready to go, too. This whole working from 7am to 11pm everyday with only a couple showers a week is starting to bug me. The 82nd is turning operations over to the returning soldiers ( Read more... )

Tomorrow morning, as the title states, my company is jumping. Should be fun. We were going to be jumping with all of our equipment, but, now, I guess we aren't. We are just jumping with parachutes. It'll be in the middle of the day. Even though it will be hot as fuck, I am still looking forward to it. I have really grown to like jumping ( Read more... )

Today was one of the better days in a while. In fact, today fucking rocked the caspa. Allow me to outline my day ( Read more... )

As many of you know, I got MySpace a while back. That has been where I have been doing most of my updating. I apologiz to those that actually read my updates on LJ. If there is anyone on LJ that has not yet extended a friend invite or had a friend invite extended to them, I would like to know. Thanks ( Read more... )
