Hi All,
I have not posted lately, due to my recent moblization, back into the active duty navy. This happened back in august, it happened so sudden, that I barely had the chance to get ready, as it stand these orders are retroactive untill mid october and the extension could go on well into next year. The frustrating part of all this is that they moblized so many people, that thay are having are hard time with them, due to the fact that for the time being, they have no defined mission and are working outside our rates (Military Ocupational Specialty's or job's for you non-navy types
, let's just say that there are a lot of unhappy people right now. But I'm sure once things get in order this will all change, I lucked out, as an E-5, I was sent to work with the base security detail as a master at arms and this is keeping us extremely busy, long hours and the tough training schedule is keeping us all sharp. As far as training goes, it's intense heck, I feel like I'm back in boot camp, my watch commander, a USMC E7, runs the training, really pushes us to the edge, and as a team, so far we all are doing well, and had no drop outs, due to OpSec I cant get into details, but you guy's understand and get the picture.
I'm proud to serve my country and will due so to the best of my ability, but the timing behind all of this could not have come at the worst time, I was scheduled to start my training at FSI on Sept, 30 2002. My section chief told to me to get ready to be in it for the long haul, funny thing about all of this is, we are the last one's to get any news usually we get it from CNN faster that from the chain of command. On a positve note, after all this years in the reserves, I finally made the E-6 list.
Well my friends, it's late and I will be posting form time to time as training permits.
Be Safe, Fly High and God Bless America.
Best Regards,
