Not counting the weekends anyway. Just finished the driving part last friday. Did really good while I was moving forward, fastest time in the class, but I can't back that aircraft carrier of a car for the life of me! I am the official class cone killer in reverse. We didn't get to do the final run on the course since all of our cars were dying from the 100+ degree weather. Blew the head gasket off one, killed the ABS on another, and the last one was just too over heated to continue. To me it was the most nerve wracking part of the academy. But it's over and I passed, so I'm happy. Hope everyone's doing good. Gotta go study, midterms next friday. Semper Fi.

41 days until graduation...
I'm Hub McCann. I've fought in two World Wars and countless smaller ones on three continents. I led thousands of men into battle with everything from horses and swords to artillery and tanks. I've seen the headwaters of the Nile, and tribes of natives no white man had ever seen before. I've won and lost a dozen fortunes, killed many men and loved only one woman with a passion a flea like you could never begin to understand. That's who I am. Now, go home, boy!

Driving was stressfull but it was the funnest part of the academy. We got two weeks and I couldn't believe what they were paying me to do.
