Bah! I was one shot away from expert with the pistol. I guess sharpshooter will have to do. The only thing left to qualify on is the hand grenade. The basic training portion of our 16 weeks is coming to a close.
Have you managed to secure a motel for family day? Are there any sights worth seeing in Kentucky? Everyone is looking forward to family day. Anything to get away from Fort Knox Prison for a few days. I am really looking forward to seeing everyone, and a movie, and junk food.....Oh and a nice pint of dark Ale.
Get info on some bar and grills like Friday's. I'm gonna want a good beer and steak. I really wanted to see the movie "Blackhawk Down", but it may not be playing by then.
I feel better than ever, well some of the time. 12 lbs I've gained, whoot! I'm gonna be a tough guy soon. hehe!
Please keep sending news info!!!!
