Well, we're at the 4 week mark in Blake's training. He's enjoying the training, but he's also looking forward to graduating and getting to his first duty station. He heard from a friend of his, Williamson, who is finished with his AIT and on his duty station. Blake wants that, too, but there's still several weeks ahead for him.
Blake had two wisdom teeth and a molar pulled a week ago last Thursday, and he's still in pain from the whole episode. He was on 72 hours bed rest, but he used the time during the night to take as many shifts as he could as fire guard. That gave him a little pocket change to use during the week. Last Friday, he saw an eye doctor to get some glasses--FINALLY! Hopefully, he'll get a pair now. He never did get his glasses in basic training.
We'll have more to report as we learn more. Right now, it's class every day. Sometimes exciting--sometimes not so much so. But he's hanging in there and doing a great job.
