Update from the Field

I'ts been two days out in the field, I'm pretty tired. We've slept 4-5 hours per night, training from 5am to 10pm. We've had weapons training - M16, .50cal, Mk-19, M249, M9 and M4; MOUT and combatives. I'll explain more later, I only have a few minutes now. I also have pictures.

We did some sparring during combatives training last night, I'm pretty sore all over. It's a total physical effort, trying to subdue another person. Two of the guys I was up against outweighed me, one by 40 pounds and one by 60. Throwing around that much weight is not easy. Think of UFC without the punching and kicking.

That's it, I'm going to bed.
