Today I went to my unit to work and complete and turn in my promotion packet for E-5.  I am so relieved to have gotten it done.  Now it's just a matter of time.  Afterward, I fully intended to come home in the early afternoon to get some personal affairs in order for when I deploy, but that didn't happen.

Let's talk.

I am currently re-acquainting myself with what was covered in Red Phase of Basic Combat Training and trying to combine that knowledge with my actual experiences. The true reason I've put this off for so long is because covering the topic of the Phases of BCT with the level of detail that I've been using in my other videos makes for a really daunting task. So I'm trying to pick the most important parts that I believe will be most helpful and cover them in my video.

Here is a relatively quick catch-up video on what has gone on with me since my Vlog 015.  If you can't remember, just watch the last vlog below.
