Wow....it hard to know what to say to that except try to stay as safe as you can.
It really sounds as if you are in a hot zone now. Hopefully no more of your guys / fellow men will have anymore incidents.
On the bright side at least you get to eat a few of your favorite foods while your at this camp.
Is there any thing you want sent to you? Send me a little wish list and I'll see what I can get together and send ya! Crap its the least I can do since your way over there in danger everyday!
Hopefully your be able to get some sort of rest with all the noise around!
yeah....so...
i am goin to fob liberty to take a class. 5 days or so. so i miss a patrol cycle. i hope no one in the plt gets hurts while i am gone. i will feel like such a dirt bag if something goes down and i am not there.
also..i sorta joined the penpals groups. off a suggestion from a friend. i guess... Read More
Costa Rica doesn't have much of a postal system either. No street or house number just, name of house, city, Costa Rica, and probably some number tacked onto the end. We want to build a house and name it "the Future". That way all our mail can be addressed to the future. Also, when visiting Atlanta and then leaving to go back home to CR we could say, "ok, it's time to go back to the future!" We joke about the mail man looking for a way to the future. haha

Dude it totally sucks that you are still sick!
Your Sargent is only looking out for you. Most people have trouble consontrating and staying focus because their body is to busy being sick. He probally oes want to see anything happen to you or your men because of cold.
Hopefully you can shake this thing and get back in the field with your men. Im sure you spend most of the time you have been in bed worrying about them. That is why you are good leader. You put concern for you men before yourself.
get well so you'll be effective. experience only counts for so much if you can't focus yourself on the mission.
it sucks, I know. I spent three weeks as a radio watch after my ankle injury in Fallujah, but I wouldn't have been much help hobbling along, slowing people up.
your job is to kick the sickness and get back in the war.
So you're a Cav Scout. That's really a strange since the guy I've been with for the past five years went into the army recently to do the same thing. He got injured during training and will be med boarded out soon.

Not the advice you're gonna want right now. I know, cuz I've been there, and I didn't want it either, got it anyway... but walk away and don't look back. People who "don't know what they want" have no business being in a relationship. I'm sorry man. I know it hurts.
Sorry to hear that he was wounded but at least her was able to come back to duty.
Wish you guys could have gone to the haunted house with us. It was fun. Hopefully we all can get together when you are in town again!!
Have a good week!!
so i've got this new guy. pv2 jones. he does all the things that get under my skin quickly and as irritatingly as possible. he is like prickly heat. i want him to just shut up and watch. just watch and learn. but he doesn't grasp that, even when you tell him. so i get impatient. and i yell. he is making me the loud...

We have that one person who know how to push your buttons. But as a leader you are responible for teaching them. I have made it a game to find out the best way to commincate and teach them. Wish you the best with this guy.
How you doing?? Did you get a chance to spend anythime with your girl before she was deployed??
