Im doing ok down here in Fort Benning. The first four days down here were hell but its gotten alot better since then. We dont really get alot of free time right now so its kinda hard to get time to write letters and then when we do we have to clean the barracks so we only have like 5 minutes. I've heard from a couple of people that mail takes like a week to get off base. We've been doing alot of stuff here the past week and a half. We went through the obstacle course and different stuff like Eagle Tower which is like a giant wooden platform with a cargo net different sets of ropes to climb and a repel tower. That was definitely the best part so far. We've been through the gas chamber too. It sucked but its not something that I wouldn't do again. It was CS gas which is the kind that police use for riot control so it just burnt your throat, lungs, eyes and nose a little. Well I guess a little is a understatement but it only lasted for like 10 minutes. This week we've been through first aid and land navigation classes which were pretty fun. Tomorrow we go on a 2 mile march to the land navigation course and then we hike back after were done. After that i dont know what we're doing except I know sometime next week we're supposed to be going to the firing range.
