Almost the End of Week 3

We're over the hump of the training! Finally! This week has been different, but not too bad. Well, except for PT yesterday. Sr. Chief really nailed us. Run until he says stop, drop down and do the excercise he calls until he says stop (like 2-4 mins of push-ups, sit-ups, flutter kicks, etc.), then get up and run again. There were no breaks between sets either. Yikes! We are all pretty sore today. Not a good thing since tomorrow is our PFA (Physical Fitness Assessment), but we aren't as sore as when we did our first PFA. The Chiefs wanted to show us who was boss then and dropped us to the deck (floor) for a hard workout. The former Marines had said that was harder than anything they did back at Marine boot camp. Glad that was in week one!

Today was a day full of classes. From 0800 - 1630, we were in class. During this time, Sr. Chief did a room inspection. I was so happy to see that we only had 2 discrepencies - one for each of us in the room. We are to make our beds with 6" of sheet folded down from the top and that is to be folded down at the 6" line. Mine was about 1/4" off as was my room mate. No biggie though, we passed!

This weekend is supposed to be our first off base liberty weekend. We are all looking forward to it. We will have to be in service dress blues to leave the base, but that's ok. :)

Well, I hate to cut this short, but I have to polish my shoes and iron my shirt for the dress uniform inspection tomorrow. We also have our second PFA (Physical Fitness Assessment) and our final exam. Should be a busy day.

God bless you all!
