It's been another weekend here in Ft. Benning
I've had the last two weekends off and Jen has journeyed
out this way 4hrs each way to spend a couple days with me.

We've stayed at the Marriot and let me tell ya...I miss a real bed!!!
I sleep in bunk-beds now that have a hospital stlye twin bed...very comfy

I did also get my orders....I have been assigned to a Conneticut National Guard unit that
is training in Indiana right now

They are a trasportation unit and I believe that they deliver refrigerated and
dry goods to the different bases using 18 wheelers.

They are going to Iraq.
This is about all I know right now...I will find out more when I get to Indiana
on the 27th of this month. I think I will be there for amonth training but not sure.

So the questions continue...how long will I be gone for? where exactly am I gonna
end up? what will I be doing?

Not sure of any of these things at this point. I do know that the other two
E4's that I have been training with here have been assigned to the same unit.
That is a relief going in there with people I am beginning to trust.

I will keep you updated.
