tues. march 30

First full day. We had to get dressed in out uniform the night before at 900pm to get our chem. gear. I took over two hours. i was so tired. But at least today we look the part and not look like a bunch of goofball reservists like we sometimes get negatively stereotyped as. Getting in the chem gear was a major pain. Very bulky. Looked like an astronaut. Started out stressfull, we got a bunch of things thrown at us, once i had time to sit down and read the procedures, it wasn't that bad. They don't play around here when it comes to fighting war. This base is very serious!! They need to be, the enemy is 50 miles away.We got some very realistic training. Unfortunately we were very slow in the passenger service department. No big news there, they weren't busy the last time i was here and the KN's (Korean Nationals) want to do all the work. job security i guess. It was a long 12 hour day. The reservists and KN's were all very cool and helpfull. On one end it was stressfull which was good, on the other it was boring which was bad. I had to finish an assignment for my Master degree internet class. We were talking about going on a tour Sunday to some island, temple, and some glass house. Sounds cool to me, i can't wait for Friday to get here!!!
