Sunday, 3 August: Just got done with another week here at good ol’ Fort Sill Oklahoma. So far we have done training in combatives, rifle marksmanship, Advanced rifle marksmanship, and MOUT. Week five we focus on land navigation and convoy operations. We spent the entire last week in the FOB and we will be going out there again for part of this week and most of next week. I am looking forward to week 6 where I will be the platoon leader for the entire week, and that week is supposed to be the most intense. In my down time I have been visiting the surrounding attractions. last weekend I went to Dallas and this weekend I went to Oklahoma City for the first time. I am meeting some great people and having a good time. I miss all of my friends and family but hopefully will be able to see them soon. Only 3 more weeks left!

This is a test post, I am trying this for the first time and just want to see if it works. This blog is for the world to view, I think.
