I would have to say that is the CLOSEST to death that I have ever come. I was driving home to Tucson on I-8, and I was outside of San Diego, and I was falling asleep, and I swerved off the road the over-corrected and spun and started rolling, I was doing about 75-80 mph.

Captain Schwartz giving us a ( Read more... )

I am going to start off this blog by telling you a little about what it was like for me before boot camp, and a few things that have happened since I graduated boot camp. Before boot camp, I was a nobody, other than a select few friends who truly stuck by my side, I was no famous person who everyone wanted to be, and who everyone liked (other than ( Read more... )

So, I started my training, and it is going GREAT, sort of, this week I kind of chopped my finger off (oops!) I was cleaning my m16 rifle, and the bolt was locked to the rear and I was cleaning out the chamber, so my finger was inside it. And my buddy bumped my rifle sending the bolt home chopping off the middle finger on my right hand. Luckily ( Read more... )
