Day 11

Today I didn't have any work to do, so I sat in the tent most of the time. The other guys went out and downloaded stuff from the strykers but I didn't. At some point in the afternoon I went with some guys from the other platoon, SGT Graham and Zamudio to go and see if we could get the mortar tubes bore scoped. I guess that's like boresighting, I'm not sure. They couldn't do it though, so we ended up walking over a mile in the hot sun and waiting in the weapons maintenance shop to find that out. Shit like that happens all the time, I gave up on caring about efficiency because it's basically nonexistent. For dinner I had a few hot dogs and then played a few games of chess on the computer. That's about all I have to say, this place is getting boring. We should be on the road to Iraq in less than a week.
