Leaving for USMA- The Second Year

<p>FINALLY got a phone call from D at CFT at Buckner. They have been going from abt 4:30am till after midnight the last few days. APFT on saturday, firing grenade launchers and SAW on sunday, learning to set up and man checkpoints today. This year they must wear flak vests at all times (nice and hot/humid there now). Sometime in the middle of all that they had a Biathalon competition (3 mile run and something else–like a dummy I forgot to ask what!). She sounds tired but excited about the training. Sounds like they have really adjusted the training this year to “current events”</p>
