I had no problem with inspection today, the first sergeant ran out of time and skipped over me. Before that, however, most of my platoon showed their complete stupidity and incompetence, and could not answer most of his questions. The DSs were pissed so they held us back in red phase. We got to phase change to white phase with the rest of the company, but 2nd platoon and us (3rd platoon) both have our flags furled still, and we still have red phase privileges. It’s annoying, but the morons in my platoon deserve it, the rest of us don’t. Thanksgiving is tomorrow though, so we’re about done for the week. Just a few little times for training I think. And then next week we start shooting! That should be awesome. I hope I can pick it up quickly, because our first qualification is the week after. My goal is to shoot expert, which means hitting 36 out of 40 targets. We’ll see how that goes though.
Ok, so we just got to use our cell phones for about 15 min. That was highly unexpected. I got to talk to most of my family again, and that was really nice. Tomorrow we might even get another call if we’re lucky. We also just found out that we get a nice meal for lunch tomorrow because of Thanksgiving, then we get to go into a big classroom and watch football! It’s been almost a month without football, and I think I’m on withdrawal. I’m definitely on withdrawal from music… 3 weeks from today and I should be on my way home though.
