hell


So as the days get hotter!!!


Well lets see....Things in the FOB just suck ass. Imagine living in a tent in the middle of Jersey during the summer time. Need i say more.Anyways things are starting to slow down. The last two weeks have been a little crazy. Most of the days have started at 4am and are over at about 10PM. We all seem to becoming a custom to the heat. Well thats a lie, but it sounds good. Any way here is a brief look at what's been going on the last few weeks. I broke it up in to to definitions.

The army definition and my own.

Land Navigation Army Definition: One or more personnel moving from point A to point B using a map, compass or terrain association to navigate.


My Definition: We walked about 4 miles in the woods and on the road. I pulled about 4 ticks, saw a few snakes and sweated my ass off for about 2 days. To walk in a big ass circle.


MOUNT Military Operations in Urban Terrain

Army definition: Overtaking a building to gain access or to secure a building.


My definition: a few guys running like jack asses with some ass hole telling us were not doing it right, but we have been doing this shit for about 6 years. So why the hell do i need some old ass man who does not know his foot from his ass instructing me in this.


MMSO Mounted Maneuvers Security Operations

Army Definition: Vehicles moving in a tactical formation to gain fire superiority over a enemy combatant


My definition: Basically we drove around in truck sweating our balls of with the windows up (stupid army rule) and yes it was about 95 to about 100 that week. While some dumb ass shoot blank rounds at us. This is bullshit!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ASO Area Security Operations


Army definition: While working in sections or small groups. Soldiers will conduct critical site security operations of a controlled area.


My Definition: Once again a few old guys with the heads so far up there ass its crazy. We rode around in vehicles and basically performed all of the stuff that we were doing a week prior.
