Made it to Ft. Bragg!

Posted August 10th, 2008 by Mike

Well, I made it to Ft. Bragg yesterday.  The barracks are WWII vintage buildings.  They’re 2 stories with 24 beds and a bathroom on each floor.  The bathroom has 2 showers, so the morning routine is going to be interesting.  It’s been very unstructured so far, I was literally dropped off at the building and told good luck.  There was one guy in the barracks when I came in and he was asleep, so I picked an open bunk and moved in.  More people trickled in throughout the day, and they were just as clueless as I was.  Finally some folks came back that had been here for some specialty training for the past week, but they didn’t know much either.  We have a meeting tonight at 2000, so I should find out some more then.

So far everybody I’ve met has been cool.  We have a van for our team and we’ve been to the BX a couple times to kill time.  Tomorrow’s the first real day of training, so I’ll post an update tomorrow evening.  I found out I could connect my phone to my laptop to get internet access for an extra $10 a month, so I added that to my plan and now I have internet access in the barracks.

I took a few pics, they’re up HERE.  I’ll be adding more to that CST album as I take ‘em.
