What an Eventful Day

  • Went out as a team for the first time in a month.
  • Broke one of the 2x4s that holds up the PVC "wire mitigation system" on our truck.
  • Climbed around on top of the truck making field expedient repairs on said system, with just my 9mm.
  • Went manual on a turret that insisted on slowly turning clockwise.
  • Blew up an allegedly un-blow-uppable battery. (Huffing acid fumes for 4 hours for the lose.)
  • Saw my first Iraqi fire truck.
  • NAPTIME!
