So, I took my PFT today. Passed. Next.
J stopped by the office today to meet some of the folks. Since they'll be among the minions J can call for any assistance she may need while I'm gone, I figured it'd be good if she could at least put a face with the voice on the other end of the phone.
I completed my medical outprocessing today, save for getting my smallpox vaccine. That's tomorrow morning. They say it makes a festering boil on your arm for the better part of 10 days before the scab finally falls off. Joy.
Pizza party tomorrow for Muck and me. Should be lots of fun, and I think it's cool the folks in the office wanted to do this. When I come back, I'll return the favor for any future deployers we have. Pay it forward, as they say.
Short and sweet tonight. I'm a little tired and J wants me to put the clean sheets on the bed. I guess I better not disappoint.
I found out later that, based on the new standards (which go into effect on 1 July), 17% of our unit would have failed. Thanks to my deployment, I'm now missing twice-a-week PT sessions. Not sure which is preferable.
