Fort Jackson South Carolina

Well, I am now in South Carolina at a small camp near Fort Jackson Army Base (near Columbia). I do infact have internet and will keep up on my blog as much as I can given the limited free time we have here. Today we were issued our body armor (pictures at a later date) and our weapons. I have both a 9mm pistol and M16 rifle while I am here, but will only deploy with the pistol. We will be doing quite a bit of shooting here over the next couple of weeks, so I will hopefully get to be a good shot. I will try to keep up on the blog here, but really, we are only doing training and it is not very exciting, although it is very tiring! The temperature is around 98 with high humidity and we will soon be starting to wear the body armor everywhere which weighs around 65 pounds so I am sure the days will be even more tiring as time goes on. Love to all!
