Useless Training

At least, I hope so. I just got back from Advanced Contingency Skills Training at Fort Dix, NJ. It was a 3 1/2 week course on how not to get killed in Iraq. Being a lawyer, I didn't have too much knowledge on combat...until now. It was actually very interesting and quite enjoyable. Most of it was hands-on training, such as convoying, night ops, hand-to-hand combat, combat first aid, etc. I also became much more familiar with the weapons I'll be carrying (M-9 and M-16). Knowing that I'll be gone for 6 months soon, it was nice to come home. Here are some pictures from the training. I'm on the far left.
