So we did have another test today. In the field. Grabbed our Assault Packs and Flicks (the MOLL-E vest) and took a nice stroll about a quarter mile down the road to our test site in the woods.
There were six stations set up, and it took all day to get through them, making it a very long day, but fun since we were grouped by squad numbers not platoons, so I got to hang out with some friends for 30th.
Received a GO on all six stations, but still won't be certified since I failed the IV stick.
Banged my knee at the buddy carry station, since I had to give my Battle Buddy, Beheyt, a piggyback ride about 25 yards. He's got 10 pounds on me and a good 6 inches. Made life interesting, but I did it.
While company got smoked when we did our police cull of the area (searching for and picking up trash) since some people had skipped events, but we were in the back out of sight and decided to work harder not smarter and only make it look like we were doing stuff.
Got and hour and a half personal time since we cleaned the bay really well so the DS gave us an extra 30 mins.
While cleaning the bay, first platoon who was downstairs at the cleaning barrels doing a class on loading and unloading our weapons, had someone ND (negligent discharge). Idiot actually squeezed off a round. Only blanks for now at least, but the DS were pissed! He's getting restarted to day 1 and an article 15. Also had someone pass out from dehydration, he's in the hospital, but will be fine. Also from first platoon. Not a good day for them.
Tomorrow is as close to a free day as we get. Church and no training. Also get an extra hour of sleep too. We have Eagle Tower next Saturday which we climb up and repel from. Looking forward to it. Make sure to write everyone!!
