Culture Shock

Well it's official...I have reported for duty and have done a bunch of Army things the past few days, but we are not in our uniforms, yet. We have done a ton of paperwork for in-processing and I know we are scheduled for more of the same the next couple of days. Today was a day that started at 0525 in formation and didn't end until after 1730 or so. That's alright because I learned a ton of info today and it's one more step in feeling more and more like a soldier.

It was also unusual for me to attend a church service where I wasn't the worship leader. I really enjoyed our visit to the church. While it was several, several, several times larger than mine, the people seemed quite warm and welcoming.

I'll get some pics uploaded in the next couple of days to show some details of our daily routine here at Ft. Jackson. I'm about to fall asleep at the keyboard, so I'll keep this blog short. Pray for endurance for us as the days can be unusually long.
