The Suck


Welcome to the suck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Things are going great this is week 2 in the FOB. Yeah right!!!!!!!!! This place sucks ASS. The training is going well they still have not posted a date for when we are leaving. Most of the training for the last few days has been rifle ranges, automatic weapons systems and a few hand to hand combat classes. While in the FOB (forward operations base) we have to wear all of our gear including the intercepter vest which weights about 50 pounds due to the ballistic plates and it sucks. Life in the FOB is suppose to mimic life in Iraq. ( Its nothing like the real thing.) The Tents are hot as hell and the MR BOBS (Portia Potts) stank. Oh and i can't forget the gray water (recycled water) that we take showers in. Besides that life is great and i can't wait to get the hell out of here. I'm sure things are normal back home
