BCT Day 28
Exactly five weeks until family day. Today started fast. We had a company run(250 people). It was 2 miles at a fast pace. I'm road guard, so of course, I had to run twice as hard. It was cool to be leading the pack.

Exactly five weeks until family day. Today started fast. We had a company run(250 people). It was 2 miles at a fast pace. I'm road guard, so of course, I had to run twice as hard. It was cool to be leading the pack. We had some more BRM in simulated targets. I did a mediocre job in shooting. I just can't get the sonbitch steady after squeezing the trigger. Tomorrow is the real thing. In a week, I'll have to hit 23 of 40 targets to move on. Live rounds tomorrow, baby.

We packed a whole bunch of **** for our staying overnight in the woods thing, called biovac or something. That's tomorrow night. The day ended with a fast 10 minute run. A blah day. Sleepy time.

A shout out to Lippy. You know who you are.
