wednesday came fast this week, nice to have monday off. we did combative fighting; except for my big friend rolling over my ankle, it was ok. so far no one has gotten hurt rolling each week, this is good and we all hope it will continue.
we had an exam on army ops this morning. it was fairly easy, open notes and multiple choice. that concluded our section on tactics and theory and we're moving on...
the leaders reaction course was an interesting event. 16 obstacles that you have to maneuver your squad through. each person takes turns as squad leader. they are not very dangerous, but caution is required. unfortunately, the last people to use the course emptied the pool underneath it, so we couldn't use the obstacles that are over water. this is most of them; so we only got to do 2 in my squad. in order to keep us motivated, the company held a competition. first we all climbed in and commando crawled through the pool to get nice and wet. then we ran around the entire course, by platoons, and crawled back through the pool. turns out we came in second. not bad, but it sucks to lose to 2nd platoon again.
on a brighter note, i'm eating more peppers and less pie.
