iSoldier: March 2007
http://isoldier.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
The life and times of a soldier-in-training. Friday, March 30, 2007. Before I give an update on the happenings in my life, I'd like to write a little about the current situation in Iran involving the detaining of 15 British Naval personnel. There have now been two confessions released on Iranian TV. If it turns out the Brits did steer into Iranian waters, yeah, there ought to be repercussions.but there has to be proof to support the confessions. I need to get a hold of my recruiter as well and see how my...

iSoldier: Tech Review
http://isoldier.blogspot.com/2009/02/tech-review.html
The life and times of a soldier-in-training. Monday, February 9, 2009. Here's what promises to be a significant posting. Is one of the greatest purchases I have ever made. Finally giving into my younger brother's persistant nagging, after I got to my current station post-Basic, I dove headfirst into the glorious Mac subculture. The only other problem I occasionally run into is a compatability issue with OSX, but only with open-source and shareware programs. Hands down, if you can afford one, buy one.

iSoldier: October 2007
http://isoldier.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
The life and times of a soldier-in-training. Wednesday, October 31, 2007. It's been an awful week. I've had two major programs due in two different classes between yesterday and this afternoon.they've been sucking up all of my free time. To top it all off, I had an APFT this morning. I went to bed around midnight, crabby and ticked off because I was so frustrated with my program for today. 2MileRun: 12:34 up from 12:28 (but my first lap/one mile time was under 6 minutes! Monday, October 29, 2007. Overall...

The life and times of a soldier-in-training. Wednesday, February 28, 2007. Ok boys and girls.today, we're going to learn something about hypocrisy. Hy·poc·ri·sy /hɪˈpɒkrəsi/ hi-pok-ruh-see] –noun, plural -sies. 1 a pretense of having a virtuous character, moral or religious beliefs or principles, etc., that one does not really possess. 2 a pretense of having some desirable or publicly approved attitude. 3 an act or instance of hypocrisy. Just to re-emphasize my point, Google. Does it measure up? Accordin...

iSoldier: Observation
http://isoldier.blogspot.com/2009/02/observation.html
The life and times of a soldier-in-training. Thursday, February 12, 2009. The other day I went to. For dinner. There were mostly men and women of Latin American ancestory working behind the counter. There was a man of Eastern Asian origins behind me in line. Important Note* This is not meant to come off as condescending, bigotous, or mean. It was just a really funny, SNL-esque situation I wanted to share. That's all for now. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

iSoldier: November 2007
http://isoldier.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
The life and times of a soldier-in-training. Wednesday, November 14, 2007. My military science class shot M16s today. I did surprisingly well. All those hours of Call of Duty and Battlefield 2 have payed off. Last year's class was an embarrassing disaster for me.so it was nice to be at the front of the group. Anyways, that's all. Felt like a badass today.nothing else going on outside of classes and tests. In fact, I'm off to one right now. Monday, November 12, 2007. Obama, Taxes, and Social Security.

iSoldier: Rifle Marksmanship
http://isoldier.blogspot.com/2009/03/rifle-marksmanship.html
The life and times of a soldier-in-training. Thursday, March 5, 2009. Part of our company went to the rifle range this weekend. I shot 37/40 which qualified me for Expert which made me really excited especially considering the disaster that was my BCT qualificiation (broken rifle, first round no go, minimum qualify.bleh). Kind of an off-day tomorrow and some fun volunteering on Saturday. More on that later! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. 150 years ago today: The End.

iSoldier: Who Doesn't Watch the Watchmen?
http://isoldier.blogspot.com/2009/03/who-doesnt-watch-watchmen.html
The life and times of a soldier-in-training. Sunday, March 15, 2009. Who Doesn't Watch the Watchmen? Let me preface this with the following: I have in fact read the graphic novel, and I believe that contributed heavily to my understanding and enjoyment of the film. Ok, now that. Out of the way. I loved the movie. It currently stands as one of my most favorite films (up there with Terminator 2, Juno, Iron Man, and the Godfather Parts 1 and 2). So to summarize: Unbelievably brilliant movie.read it first.

The life and times of a soldier-in-training. Friday, August 31, 2007. I fell asleep at 1800 last night.11 hours of sleep is apparently exactly what the doctor ordered, heh. We had our first LeadLab of the year yesterday.on proper uniform wear and hot/cold injuries and treatment. Very well done. That's all I've got for today. Going to see my little brother play Varsity football tomorrow and an Air show on Sunday.good times. Enjoy your long weekend, hooah. Monday, August 27, 2007. Of course, a lot of the w...
