     In the Army one of the worst feelings is when you or your unit is told to do something that you know the majority of post is just blowing off. Morning PT is a good example. Nearly everyone on Ft. Hood does PT Mon-Wed-Fri... la-dee-da-dee everybody as the saying goes. The problem goes at 0535 as I pull out of my house on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Normalyy on the other days there is a nearly unroken string of traffic creaming by my apartment complex on their way to PT. On these in between days though I am virtually alone on the road. An unscientific guess would be that around 20% of Ft. Hood does PT on the off days. This makes it very difficult to muster my enthusiasm that early in the morning.

 

      Just me bitching because the traffic difference struck me this morning. We had a great workout from SSG Indeterminate so that part was good.

Let me get this straight, grey. You go to PT every MWF because you have to and then you go on T&T because you want to? And that happens around 5:30 a.m.? Who are you? Where is my son?

Lol no... I guess I was not clear, our unti *makes* me go on Tuesday and Thursday as well, while most of post snoozes.... Hence the disheartenment.

I was going to ask Who are you and where is my friend?

That makes more sense.

Well I will be damned, I thought you never bothered to read this thing chip:) Welcome... As for my location well I thought you would have gotten that from the articles:) Monterey must be eroding that fine intellect... (it's all the sea air) (and the students)

No, no, I know where you are. I meant more like who are you and what did you do with my friend? When I first read your article I wasn't sure if you were going to pt on Tuesday and Thursday on your own...
