So yesterday I started Embarked Security Combat Skills class here on Norfolk Naval Shipyard with my future unit, Coastal Riverine Group 2 (CRG-2). It is my final school before I ship off to Bahrain next month and from the looks of things, it's going to be pretty intense. High speed, low drag is what they are telling us, in fact, this whole next week we're going to be staying off base at a range to practice with our crew-served weapons. A whole week out on the range doing nothing but shooting big guns. I think I'm going to be in heaven.
I switched over from my blue cammies to my greens today. They are a uniform that only two units use, the Seabees and the Riverines which I'm in. Not gonna lie, they make me look like a bowl of guacamole, but it's nice knowing that I'm one of the only two units in the Navy that gets to wear this uniform. Plus, they make me look more like a real "soldier" and not a blueberry. The greens are a lot more comfortable than the blues too so that's really nice. It's just one more reminder that I'm one step closer to being deployed.
I really don't have that much more to put out...I wish more exciting things would happen to me.
Hugs from your favorite MA
