30 murders in 5 days.

It is feels awkward to me to live in a place so close to where so many people die in such a short period of time. I look across the valley and see the Mexican flag and know that people are getting killed in a war so close to where I am. The drug cartels are mad because the united states arrested a whole bunch of the people in their organization here in the states.

 I didn't know we didn't have the right not to be framed by the prosecutors.

So today was the start of my Combat Life Saver training. (Yes Christopher, I think it's oxymoronic to o.) Its mostly stuff that would be covered in a Red Cross CPR class with some additions. One of those additions is how to put in a nasopharengeal tube.

4 months in El Paso

Submitted by Jesse_Willis on Sun, 2009-11-01 19:25

Well it's been 4 long months since I arrived at my fist duty station, Ft Bliss, in El Paso TX. I have kept myself busy getting into as many military training courses as they will let me. I have taken HazMat Handeling, Unit Armorer, DoD GPS, Advanced Drivers Training, and done 2 cycles at the shooting ranges, each about a week long.

I am in the army now and learing how to drive trucks. I finished Basic Training april 16th and will finish my job training june 5th. Not sure where I'll be stationed yet but I will be posting and reading to keep in touch over the distance. Basic was an interesting expierence. I have a journal of my time in basic that I will probably post on my facebook or myspace account.

A Blog

Submitted by Jesse_Willis on Thu, 2008-10-30 20:56

I've not really paid much attention to this blogging craz that has taken the world by storm so am mostly unaware of what it is supposed to be. Is it some sort of journal that the public can read or is there supposed to be a particular topic? Do I just write about myself or is it acceptable to write about others? What are the rules of this game? Is there ettiquet or is it a mosh pit?
