I must accomplish this and three other tasks to graduate .the other two that don't involve backing are the least challenging.
 
The video ,which I will fix.will be used for the graduation ceremony.I haven't posted the myriads of ww2 relics here.the video is the alley dock one.45 degree.the low pitch voice is explaining what is being demonstrated. Sfc z is speaking .I'm too far away when I recorded this to get him clearly. The other one,straight line. Is not as hard.if I get this one ,the other being I don't turn at a 45 will be easier.
 
Why fix the video? I rather had fun leaning to one side to watch it .... reminded me of a scene from the movie "The Distinguished Gentleman" with Eddie Murphy. (It was a hoot of a movie!)

It takes great skill to back those trucks into proper placement. You definitely have my prayers on that one.

There's monument to a deceased master sergeant who would do donoughts backwards and parks between the cones while the dust was settling.he would light a cigarette and smoke it while waiting for it to clear.

Like many that teach here,which will include me.88m,truck driving,was not their first mos.the msgt was an artillery man first and had 10 years as a 88m.if I recall right.he died a few months ago.he was my age.the hill that we drive on and start on is named after him. long before this others were training here and stayed in barracks there. I have a nack for finding those remnants.macpharland hill is the name

Thursday, but they will move them up if they feel we are ready as they did with the pls,the video of the echu is a tested subject.I passed all of that.not as hard as this.they did warn of the frustration, grown men will cry.
 
There's a few photos I took of the volleyball challenge. The main reason I took this one is for history.I will share this as these are going away.it's a field house made into a gym.it had a ticket stand for games.ww2 era
 
Volleyball is a good sport ... I always enjoyed it.

At the end of the course, the pictures you've taken will be appreciated. Good memories from a challenging time.

I probably more videos to share then anything.few here share interest.I have pointed out the old stuff .ie the pow camps.the old and still used rail head area.worked in a few of them. Easy to spot on the old bases.pickett and blanding were built at the same time.they share alot of designs.but we digress.I will start a thread on old ww2 stuff and florida history which I have shared with you before.I can upon tommorow or at home post that thread. I will chiefly focus on florida if I'm the only one posting as its the most familiar to me.
