Look Ma! She CAN March!
This was my favorite thing so far - I got to rappel down this tower - that's me on the left out in the air.
Waiting in line for my chance to jump!
Well, we're back from the FOB - what a weird, crazy 'camping' trip! I didn't get many pictures from there as I didn't bring my camera (a disposable one would have been good here), but we essentially lived in tents for a 2 nights. Due to unprecedented thunder storms, we were unable to do a night land navigation course and were sent back to the hotel for one night in the middle of the training. They're super serious about our safety here. We did do a ropes course and have been receiving course instruction in: environmental law, humvee/motor pool protocol/procedures (and culture), discussion on our non-combatant status, and given time with the chaplains to ask our personal questions. It has been an incredibly physically, emotionally and spiritually challenging week (in a really good way for the most part). We were all really tired when it was winding down and the moral was sort of tanking. We have this weekend off, but have homework assignments. Today was nice for me. I had time to sleep in, do some errands and get most of my assignments knocked out for Monday. This week will be almost exclusively classroom instruction, so no more fun photos this week.
