Travel

Here are my next training dates just so everybody knows:
March 3-15 2008 Air Assault at Ft. Benning GA
April 14-20 2008 Weapons Qualification at Ft. McClellan AL
May 17-June 7 National Training Center at Ft. Irwin CA

I've been really busy lately trying to get ready for all this. I like to leave everything set at work so that everything will run smoothly. We'll see if it all actually works out. Somehow an annual check-up turned into a full physical today including a typhoid shot. I told them that I already died from typhoid on Oregon Trail in 5th grade so I was immune. They gave me the shot anyway along with hep b and a flu shot (yes, third one this year).

It's always hard to leave my family and home but especially this time. Vanessa cannot lift more than 5 lbs due to her restrictions with Ellie. I wonder if I will be able to tell when I come home that her belly grew? Hopefully I won't be home prior to March 15; Air Assault is a high attrition course.
