Happy B-Day, Jonathan! Hope you had a good and fun day! I will get you something nice when I get back . . .something we can do together.
It has been ok since Family Day, hard but that is to be expected. People in my platoon are still as crazy as ever.
Today we had a PT (Physical Training) test and I did well. I ran 2 miles in 13:27 (perfect being 13 min or less) and sit ups being at 69 (78 is perfect), and 44 push ups (just passable). Editor's note: sit ups and push ups are timed.
One the 2 mile, I ran the first mile in 5:30. Only one PT test left in about 2 weeks.
I really enjoyed and got a lot done on Family Day. I can't wait to see you guys again at graduation. I also can't wait to find out what everyone has been up to.
In this next week we have CQB training (Editor--your guess is as good as mine), ten and twelve mile ruck marches (this is marching with a backpack), and Field Training (the Captain describes this as camping with guns). After that we are done!! Then two weeks of nothing til I can come home. (Editor--the "nothing" is lots of cleaning and turning items in and de-processing and hurrying and waiting).
