I was approached yesterday by an NCO at lunch and told that he had been reviewing my records, and said I was doing very well, and to keep it up until I graduate.
A few words of encouragement there, gave me the morale boost I needed!
I have just over 3 weeks left here until I can see the home I've missed since December! See my family again, it's been at least a couple of months for some of them, and see my mate again, and finally spend a night together without worrying about having to be back for curfew.
I'm prepared to ace the physical fitness test day after tomorrow, despite the nasty bruise on my leg. Any other injury like this I'd be upset about, especially so soon before a physical aptitude test, but this one was caused by my buddy dropping a Hellfire missile launcher on it. not many people can point out a scar on their body and say it was caused by a rocket launcher!
