i need a game to play with pax so i voted 1 i have internet now so i think i am good to go for whatever.... even though i just got my books for Field Artillery school and the box weighs literrarly about 45 lbs.....
Damn butterbars have it easy. The HE rounds for a 198 weigh 90 pounds! I have seen one knock down a short guy on the ground when unloading it from a 5-ton!
ha yeah some of those rounds are massive as hell, I have so much respect for those 13 series guys (Field Artillery Enlisted for those not in the US Military). So much to learn right now though, about being a FDO and a FSO and a PL and learning all the jobs of everyone who works around you. Its cool to learn and know that much stuff but it sure is a lot of reading, about 30+ books worth! I have PT 0530-0630 and then class from 0800-1700 with an hour break for lunch. Sitting in a chair all day long watching power point sucks but it is very interesting stuff... takes at least an hour studying a night but i sure as hell dont want to show up to my PLT (1AD, Baumholder Germany) looking all ate up so I make sure I learn as much as I can now.
And Carter I miss Buffalo sports so damn much. I definatly will not be able to see any Bills or Sabres games around here (unless I shoot for hockey down to dallas for a game or over to phoenix) but there is always internet radio. I have a patriots/bruins fan Lieutenant around here who I will have to contend with throughout both seasons, so that should be fun.
