Well, It must be real cold in hell...I got appointed 3rd squad leader today. Don't ask why, I'm trying to figure it out myself. I'm not keeping my fingers crossed, jus gonna do my job until I get killed or they find somebody better to put it in lack of better terms. Well, I'm out for now, been be real busy now at the shop. All the staff NCO's are riding my back and shit along with the rest of the squad leaders. See we got this new sgt. in our platoon. He's been with Arty, and the Infantry and has made 3 tours in Iraq. He said that our platoon layout was good, but not good enough so he just been observing us for hte past couple weeks. I guess I made a good impression, cuz I'm the bootest Lance corporal, not bootest Marine in the shop but bootest lance corporal. Anyway's when they passed word today, they made a new layout for the platoon and he wanted us to be more like a grunt unit...which we are we jus never acted like one wen it came to the breakdown. Make a long story short 3rd squad is mine for the time being. Let's see how long I last eh...
