VSP Academy (9 weeks left!!)

[Whtwolf14]

I haven't posted in a while, sorry about that. It was all the normal stuff, trying to stay awake in class and all....This past week was our final phase of firearms, and it was sweet!!! After getting qual'd up on night fire certifications we started the fun stuff. We didn't line up and punch holes in targets all day, which gets pretty boring. We set up scenarios and did practical shoot/no-shoot scenarios, shoot and moves, delta drills, etc. They would break us off into 2-4 man teams and get us amped up with PT then have us sprint to the stations and engage. That is a real eye opener if you think you can shoot pretty good. I thought I was a pretty good shot until after that, humbling (SP?) to say the least. I need to work on stress type shooting when I graduate.

Next week is Fort Pickett for driving. I also have my assignment which is great since I won't have to move. The wife and I have an appointment with a home builder tomorrow.

Congrats on the assignment. I saw the memo this week and looked for your name. I noticed you'll have a classmate joining you as well. It's nice to go an area and have a classmate from academy start the same time you do.

Sounds like everything else is downhill from here. I'll have to check the phone directory to see if I know your First Sergeant. If so I'll PM you on what to expect. I'm sure you won't have much problem though; the F/Sgt you probated with said you pretty squared away.

Great to hear from you and see all is well. I missed your posts the last couple weeks and updates. Keep plugging!

The babies are coming the babies are coming! I hope we get some of you guys. We could use four or five.
