Pretty quite group this AM once the arm smoke-fest began. Designed to push you to failure in short order, this one gassed the Q for it to not have much running – washing my hair the shower afterwards was harder than most mornings! PAX was moving quick this AM with the Thang taking only 17 minutes, hence the bonus Speed Round. Awesome to see and lead a large group of faithful men. Welcome to Colt .45…guess we will see him in 6 months or so as he is headed to Specialist School. Also, good luck to Bear Meat as he heads to Alaska for the summer tomorrow. Prayers for Psycho-T and Family as they celebrate his grandmother’s life today – all 93 years – and lay her to rest.
Dismissed, Hipbone
