I have arrived!!!Wahahahaha!! Today was my first real work day with my new unit, not at all what I expected I can say that much for certain. I am on camp Las Pulgas which is in Camp Pendleton in California, way out in the boonies. All there is here is a small store and a gym other than that we are 15 miles away from anywhere. The plus side is I am on the first floor of my new Dorm, the rooms are bigger and the people I work with are pretty cool. They made me the training NCO today, should be an interesting challenge. Training NCO for the most part is a desk job which requires taking care of everyones administrative troubles, as well as making weekly training schedules. My job coming into the Marine Corps was being a switchboard operator which is really interesting to me. The trouble is that I am with an Artillery Battery now, artillery batteries are much smaller and more moblie than the Communications battalion I was with. That means the bulky Comm gear I am used to use I will never touch again. That also means when we go to Iraq I will be much closer to the action in order for us to shell the "terror" out of Iraq.
I have not set any goals for my time here yet, but when I do I will post them here and if you (if there us a you) Does anybody read this? Oh well, (sigh) if you do please read my goals when I post them and check up on me from time to time to see if I am meeting any of them. Oh yeah please pray that i can find a good church and fellowship out here as well as be a witness in my work place. Enough for now peace!!!
