Training for deployment
Well, I've almost completed one month of training for our deployment to Iraq. In a couple of weeks we will leave for Georgia for additional training and then off to the middle east. I have been training on all the different machine guns and vehicles that we will be using on our mission overseas. It has been hard being away from home and at this point doesn't look like I am going to get a chance to visit home before leaving for Iraq. We work hard, and don't get much time off. It was nice that it rained last week. It cooled things off a bit, but created a lot of mud. I have limited access to the Internet here. Surprisingly my access will probably improve when I get to Iraq. Most likely we will find the most comfortable living arrangements when we get there of any that we will see in training! Until then I won't be able to post any photos. Pray for us that are leaving and for those who are already there.
