Long day today, but alot of fun. My company had an MWR day (morale, welfare, and recreation). so basically they force you to spend your free time hanging around all the people that you're tired of working with. they usually stink but today turned out to be great. we went down to the Persian Gulf and did some water survival training w/ our battalions diver team and then we swam in the Gulf for the rest of the day. way too salty, but it felt good to just get a chance to swim after swallowing sand for so llong.

yeah it is. we were at the naval base and there was a kfc there too. i'm assuming that's where they got the plates. u can get s'warmas up here where i'm at but they're not near as good as these were. they also have these banana drinks made by Granini. I've never seen them in the states but they are awesome!
